Default Set 2...more shots from Waiau Waterworks

Remember skinny cool dude from set one well this is his cousin, he's manning the water bucket wheel. Each time the wheel turns water tips from one bucket to the next.

Waterwheel

Black dog ate all skinny cool dudes food and now skinny cool dude hasn't the energy to push the mower so skinny cool dude turned it into a ride-on-mower.

Ride-on-mower with dog

Colourful bucket wheel with reflection.

Steves Shots having a go at water war. You pull the trigger and squirt water at the person opposite you.

Hope you enjoyed these shots of Waiau Waterworks, it is a fun place to visit. Thanks for looking.

Hi Angela - these are very interesting but the one that caught my eye is the bicycle/lawnmover ... what a clever idea ... I wish I had thought of something like that when I was using a manual lawn mower ... very nicely captured

Nice and colorful set. It does look like fun. I like the idea of the riding lawnmower.
