On my yearly assignment to photograph miniature traction engines in Spalding I have had to find the best locations to for my shots. Quite the best place is the area of woodland that from mid-April to early May has colourful drifts of tulips. These flower successfully because the tree canopies at this time of year still let through plenty of light. Nonetheless, the sun is welcome for this photographic task because it illuminates the subject and shows of the colours to better effect. This particular traction engine was carrying not only the builders/owners but also, in a trailer, their basset hounds.
