Firebox

Gallery: POP PhotosPosted June 29, 2012317 views11 comments

Found this hatch and stuff on an old steam powered tractor in central Washington a couple months ago. I believe it is the firebox of this tractor. Liked all the rust and textures. Appreciate your thoughts on this.

Large image attached which seems to work a bit better.

Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions.

Great textures. . The OCD in me wants to reach out and tweak the photo to at least get the fire door level.

Palpable textures, and the rust makes for some good color. Cool shot, Vance!

These are some of my favorite subjects with my vintage cameras. You got everything in focus, and the colors are great! It could stand just a tiny bit of leveling, an easy fix.
