There is no one minding the engine; the belt is unguarded; the operator isn't wearing a mask or ear defenders or gloves or eye protection or steel toes; there is no warning notice to the public re silica dust. All told it's super picture!
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

That's just superb, a step back in time with a digital camera. The silica dust can be forgiven - it completes the atmospheric illusion.

Yes and the tar blocks in the firebox of the roller helped the exhaust add to the atmosphere too!
