Description
1907 Horse-Drawn Steam Fire Engine.
For Jeff, I hope you are feeling better. I felt like jazzing this one up a little bit. This was taken inside a fire station in Knoxville Tennessee; someone mentioned it would be great to see it with the horses pulling it, well it is used twice a year for local parades. One for Christmas and one for the Dogwoods festival in the spring, since I didn’t make it to the Christmas parade to get a shot (too cold) I will try to get one during the next parade I would love to see that too.

nice presentation
Wonderful capture Lynell, Jeff will love it :)
excellent post work and your presentation is superb
Thanks all I am heading out into the rain.. lol to get some pictures of the over flowing streams in our area, been raining here non-stop why not get out and enjoy it... my daughter just got home and informed me the the schools are closed tomorrow because of flooding... YIKES hope it stops soon.
Cool shot, I'm glad you came up with a bigger version of it!
Terrific postwork !
Love the postwork. I have been on one similar. Even got to ring the firebell. Nice shot. Aloha
an artistic and outstanding creation. Very skillfully done.
Oh this is a great photo shot...LOve these old historic vehicles.
Funny title for this great photo Lynell, nice work
Wonderful presentation. And yes, please do go to the Dogwood Festival and get it with the horses. I can see and hear it now -- racing down the street, smoke bleaching form the stack, bells ringing. Well, that's the way they show it in the movies.. I'm not quite that old.
Great composition and post work Lynell!
Great picture and wonderful postwork
OMG, all that metalwork! Love the ghostlike apparition effects of the fire engine you've concocted here, Lynell. Sorry about your weather conditions.
This looks like a drawing. Wonderful art!!
wonderful postwork
Great Tittle and picture well done!
marvelous!
Very nice picture and post work! Well done.
GREAT CAPTURE :)
Nice effect to give the feel of hurrying off to a fire or a parade. Great work!
great color and picture,wonderful work.
Another great shot of this lovely oldtimer.
This fire engine is 101! We all should look so good at that age:-) I like your jazzed up presentation very much! Bill
It looks like new Lynell, these restoration people do a damn fine job, I like that big brass bell under the foot rest. I wonder how they work it, I have seen some like it before and as far as I recall the turn a handle to get it to ring. It looks like this one would be too close to the horses butt, to be able to turn it. Very intriguing, I can't wait for the Dogwood Festival, I hope you manage to make it. Superb work and thank you for sharing. Bravo!!!!!
another of your vibrant shots of old & marvelous structures, this one a symphony in reds, blacks & gold. And I'm glad you caught the red truck next to it, because it gives us more vivid red, and because we can see what those old carriages turned into. (Did you know that "teamster" was the name for the person who drove a 'team of horses'? You probably knew that, but just in case...Point is, trucks came out of these old horse-drawn things; and it's amazing to see their 'intermediate' stages, where you had horses but also engines. Even if the engines were used to power water, they represent the in-between stage...) Thanks for giving us all these pieces of our culture, Lynell. You give us a real journey...
so much coooool and beauty
Great
Fantastic shot and presentation!
excellent ! love the postwork !
