Steam, Steel & Grease
This weekend marked the 27th Hunter Valley Steamfest, and of course it’s a prime opportunity for photography as well, even if you’re not a trainspotter.
Given the subject matter, I have explored the use of some desaturation and high-contrast in these images. A high-pass filter magnifies the effect further.
The following 3 images were taken at Newcastle Station. This old man was the driver for excursion train to Newcastle on Saturday.
The train about to depart for Maitland.
Lots of brass and gauges in the cab.
This is the valve-gear of the excursion train to Dungog, taken at Maitland on Sunday.
This is the back face of the firebox of a traction engine, taken at Maitland on Sunday.
Just some old tools on display, taken at Maitland on Sunday.
Currently it looks like Expression Engine is the preferred blogging platform out there right now.
(from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of
spam responses? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.

Howdy! I understand this is kind of off-topic but I needed to ask.
Does managing a well-established blog like yours take a massive amount work?
I’m completely new to running a blog however I do write in my diary on a daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and thoughts online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Appreciate it!
