Trying to do more Tilt Shift post-processing of pictures. This is a backhoe doing construction outside my office building
An update to one of my favourite childhood sets, the 6662 backhoe. The set is a great classic town vehicle, but with the newer larger scale vehicles, I felt it was in need of an update.
Inspired by the work of Pierre Normandin, Richard Brown, and Martin Jaspers
Here I am playing with a rented back-hoe, working on our waterfall project in the backyard.
The summer project that never ends! I have been working on this since May! There is an upper falls, lower falls, short stream, and a cascade; all ending up in a pond at the bottom.
We are hoping that the waterfall will be finished before the temperatures drop below freezing. My biggest problem right now is the wimpy amount of water flow; in spite of the fact I have two pumps rated for about 3000 gph each at this head height. It looks like I will need another pump rated at maybe 20,000 gph to get the flow I want!

Not sure who's in this picture. Dad says it has to be him, as he would let no one else on his backhoe. This was a 580 CK (Construcion KIng)
When we went to visit the grandparents a few weeks back, the city playground in Windom, Minnesota had this awesome kid-sized backhoe digger, with dual hand controls which raise, lower and dump the bucket just like [in my best non-union estimation] a real backhoe.
It was pretty awesome, and the Dad loved it. The only problem, of course, is that only one Father at time can play with it. And while the kid and I waited for her to take a turn, little townie urchins were wrasslin' each other for the seat like it was the last pancake on the plate.
Meanwhile, a sandbox with half a dozen immobile toy backhoes with children perched mutely on each, digging alone, sounds kind of depressing. Unless it inspires crane ballet, but somehow I doubt the town fathers' vision for these rigs includes instilling in their boys a deeper appreciation of choreography.
