Hi-Tech in its time, good old German precision work.
Stunning capture my friend.
As I understand, it had a very distintive sound
Very good picture of this beast Andrew...hard to believe this is over 100 years old now...presuming the 08 in the name was the year of its' invention/acceptance by Kaiser Bill's army.
Perhaps it's all the prescription drugs I'm taking for all my various maladies, but I can't help but notice a William Burroughs' insectoid bearing to this device. Loooks almost like it's about to jump out at you while spewing fire out of its top snout. Interesting shot.
wonderful photo!!
I guess this made a few people do ballet.... Sorry, that was the 80's band! Clive
Wonderful capture and in super condition. Dana
