An impressive lineup of Traction Engines and Road Rollers at the Sheffield Steam & Vintage Rally.
Never mind Moz the Monster {aka John Lewis Christmas advert} try this Clee Hill Roller - also a monster appearing out of the steam rolling the tarmac late at night. My fingers were just going numb with the cold despite all the warm clothing and then high viz jacket and trousers on top, hard hat and gloves. This was taken about 11:35 pm and the temperature was going downhill fast but fortunately most of the re-surfacing nearly completed. (The roller is a German made BOMAG BW161 AD unit.)
Image info - Nikon D4 with Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lens at f/2.0 , ISO 8000, shutter 1/1250 , processed in Lightroom cc and then NIK Collection silver EFEX Pro 2, using "fine art" settings.
Are we in the real world? or are we the reflections?
Had to almost screech to a halt when I saw this yesterday :) worth it :)

KWS Infra are a road-building company in the Netherlands, with a large fleet. This is one of their GINAF X 3335 S tipper trucks, pulling a Nooteboom drawbar trailer loaded with a Hamm road roller. I've been working on this on and off for weeks, finally completing the trailer this morning.
As you have already see The Roadroller, Himachali Old Man, Waterfall and the Shy Boy from my recent trip.
Here is a Hand Pump clicked in HDR just opposite to the Roadroller.
It was not a great scene to click generally albeit - as someone said - "every spot is special" - so I clicked multiple exposures thinking atleast an HDR would come out decent. So it did!
Hope you like it!
