South Cerney Vintage Steam Fair

We attended the Vintage Steam Fair yesterday and it was great, easy access (no queues) cheap admission £10 with plenty of parking.

The event was large and well spread out so despite the numbers it never felt crowded, there was a real mix of items from plenty of steam driven items to stalls, vintage re-enactors, eateries and entertainment for the children - a great success with a real family feel.

I do apologise for it being image heavy, the full set can be seen on my site - 571 Photography

Great pictures. I like them a lot! Some excellent portraits as well. And good post-processing. Heavy vignetting adds the feeling of "old" and works well.

Amazing Photos.

Thank you both,

It was a great venue and we were lucky that just as we left it started to rain!

Thanks very much... love traction engines... great shots.
cheers

I can smell them great set but the portraits stand out,in more ways than one.

Thanks for posting! Wonderful images...

Thanks Carroll, Oldsalt and Mike for the nice comments.

The smell was wonderful and the noise from precision machinery was fantastic, mechanical perfection at its best and at a price.

Apparently, there was one engine there worth £400,000+ and quite a few others worth over £150,000 so a lot of money's worth but all with a great deal of love and attention.

Thanks Mike, I did want to make the portraits stand out especially of the victorian reenactors.

Thanks Nikonpup,

The look was one of "flash git".

I have just responded to your message ref processing.

Great set of pix!

It was a great event and the sky added some nice impact to the images.
