Default Ye old steam roller

This lil gem has been sitting on our river walk for who knows how many years. I walk by it every day and never gave it a second thought. Yesterday I walked by and took a quick shot at it and this is what I came up with
steam roller

Isn't it amazing how inspiration will kick in at the most random times? Great PP work, as usual, windrider.

Great image! I look at the result and wonder...well, what took you so long? Glad you stopped and shot!

And yet another great shot. I will tell you if I don't like a shot - but I think it is highly unlikely!

Amazing how we can walk past things every day and take them for granted. I'm glad you suddenly decided to stop for a moment during your walk.

Great capture windrider and brought all the more to life with your excellent pp skills, It is amazing what we take for granted until we buy a camera. mmmm there is an old rusty bucket out at the back....maybe.. Sorry... Lovely work windrider.
