Heavy equipment on a Mississippi River sandbar opposite Reads Landing, Minnesota. This equipment was part of an Army Corps of Engineers’ dredging operation near the mouth of the Chippewa River.
Why is the color "medium azure"? The "medium azure" will be the color scheme for my construction theme. It's striking and different.
This model is inspired by the "Fendt tractor" model. Seen it's documentary of fracturing inspires me to build this. This will only fit one Minifigure. The loader and bucket do have articulation. Manage to fix in the hydraulic parts but not as realistic as the real model. I decided to custom build the loader and the bucket as well. It will look better using the pre-made parts for that. For now, I just prefer this look.
I'm an avid bicycle rider and I usually have a camera for me for targets of opportunity like this one. I was on a trail through a local park and they were doing some work on utility lines. I was able to get several good images. Many of my best photos are targets of opportunity that I find while on the bike. HDR using both photomatrix and topaz adjust.
Other than at Belford Harbor, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a backhoe on a barge. I was going to say that I rarely see it, but I see this one all the time. Two images again, one with all four shots and a second with the ends set up to freeview 3D. Nimslo 3D, Kodak Plus-X (expired 1990s), Divided D-76.

A backhoe loader, also called a loader backhoe, digger, or colloquially shortened to backhoe, is a heavy equipment vehicle that consists of a tractor fitted with a shovel/bucket on the front and a small backhoe on the back. Due to its (relatively) small size and versatility, backhoe loaders are very common in urban engineering and small construction projects (such as building a small house, fixing urban roads, etc.).
A backhoe in a stripmine. On the map so look it up, between Shamokin and Trevorton, PA. Done in HDR with my 50mm prime nikkor.

¿Qué os parece?
Aquà otro procesado que he probado, y en principio me gusta más...

On the way home, pulled over next to the old airport to take picture of the sky. Gates were open to the construction zone.
Whenever I start a build, I have a little wish list (if I were selling these instead of being my own 'customer', I'd call it a design brief). I wanted a (mostly) studless minifgure scale JCB backhoe loader, suitable for a diorama or as the load for one of my trucks, with a cabin large enough to house an operator, a functional front bucket and some freedom of movement for the rear excavator arm.
Well, actually it's a combination of wheel loaders, utility vehicles, trucks and trailers, augmented by police, but you get the idea.

Every July the LEGO club I'm in, IndyLUG, participates in the By Air, By Rail (BABR) Festival near Fortville. It's held at the Mount Vernon Middle School. They're in the process of expanding the school, so there's lots of work being done during the summer when school's not in session. I love construction equipment, so I had to get some shots of the machinery they had out there.
The large-scale model has more functionality and a more accurate representation of the mechanisms of both the front loader and the rear excavator arm. In terms of overall looks and details, however, the small one isn't all that far behind.
My latest creation. Hope u gonna like it.

The JCB Display Team, more commonly known as the "Dancing Diggers" performs across the length and breadth of the country and is recognised as one of the top arena attractions available.
The team has appeared on television many times, showcasing the amazing abilities of the machine operators as they push their diggers to the absolute maximum of their capabilities.
The team comprised of 4 giant JCB 3CX diggers and one 527-55 loadall.
The four JCB's in the team weigh 8.5 tonnes each and cost in excess of £48,000 each.
The Display Team drivers perform dare devil stunts and formation digger dancing. During a performance accompanied by music they push the machines and themselves to the limit, thrilling audiences of all ages.
The stunts performed are not only very difficult, but are also very dangerous, and must, under no circumstances be attempted by anyone in the audience!
Whilst on location the team provided a static display for the public which was very popular
The Machines
527-55 LOADALL
The JCB 527-55 is a hugely efficient Dieselmax-powered Loadall. It’s powerful, productive, manoeuvrable, comfortable and safe.
3CX Eco
The JCB 3CX is the world’s number one backhoe loader (along with the JCB 4CX). The 3CX is a product of JCB’s efficient design philosophy, responding to today’s rising fuel prices and environmental concerns with class-leading efficiency and low running costs. In short, innovative technologies have been applied to squeeze the absolute maximum out of every drop of fuel on the JCB 3CX Eco.
The Company
The firm was founded by Joseph Cyril Bamford in October 1945 in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, England.
The JCB logo dates from 1953; from 1960 the company typewriters were given an extra key to render it accurately. The logo was designed by Leslie Smith, and is off-set at 18 degrees from the horizontal and 22 degrees from the vertical - the angles Joe Bamford liked.
To demonstrate his faith in the hydraulic failsafes on JCB machines (which lock the arms in the event of a loss of hydraulic pressure, preventing them from crashing to the ground), Joe Cyril Bamford arranged to have several backhoes raise themselves up on their arms, and drove his car beneath them.
This has since developed into a world famous demonstration of the versatility of the backhoe configuration. The JCB display team (JCB Dancing Diggers) tour agricultural shows and produce videos, showing some of the unusual ways in which such vehicles can support themselves or manoeuvre. For example, it is quite common for drivers to support the vehicle on both buckets, either for turning on the spot without damaging ground, or for spinning the tracks in a puddle to clean them. The display team expanded this concept into a sort of vehicle gymnastics. The drivers are members of JCB's demonstration team, who visit prospective customers and demonstrate machines on the customer's property in order to prove the machine's suitability for the task at hand.

Engineering equipment with a front bucket/shovel and a small backhoe in the rear combined with a tractor is known as backhoe loader. It is mostly used in small construction sites and in urban engineering such as fixing city roads.
This floating excavator is used in areas of very soft ground, such as the Fraser Delta near Vancouver, British Columbia Canada. This particular unit was spotted at Roberts Bank coalport.
