Photography Challenge #1: Photo 14 - Infrastucture

The support arms are the bass players of the Sterling Engine. They're an integral part of the machine, without which nothing would work, but are mostly ignored. Instead, the fly wheel, cams, rods, and cylinders (the moving bits) get all the glory. So here's to infrastructure, the unsung heroes of the machine.

This photo should also act as a reminder to me (and anyone), that it's always a good idea to take a break and revisit your work before delivery. Right before posting I noticed that the shadow line (effectively a horizon) on the support arm was just off horizontal, so I quickly rotated the image some just before uploading.

As for the dust, I've given up on that battle.
