Cool. I like the face staring back just left of the gauges.

I like it, Keith!

My brother is a firefighter and is certified on the pumps - he'd dig this shot.

Cheers,

Jeff

Thanks Camper and Jeff. Mono---hmmm---interesting idea. It would lose the color in some of the displays, though, and apparently the valves are color coded to mean something?

Here it is:

Nice. The hand is a great feature.
Mono with higher contrast, structure??

Rusty and Scott -- contrast I understand, but structure? You lost me on that one.

Thanks,
keith

BTW: the fire truck was pumping water through a fire hose into the tender of this steam locomotive running a two-day special...

Structure is a term used by Nik which is similar to, iff not identical to mid contrast bump

At first I preferred the OP color image, but after seeing Kent's very nice mono edit, I think that's the way to go. Nice work Kent!

And good eye Keith. The hand really makes the shot!

Thanks y'all.

Scott, I see the appeal of the b/w version in your image: the color seems a bit distracting from the "message". To my eye mine is a bit more subtle, but I see the appeal of the b/w version there too although in this case I think I like the color although Kent's version is a close competitor.

The mono is clean as hell and looks really sharp.

But the color is the winner for me here. More dynamic, conveys the complexity of the pump system. I think the color has more 'punch' to it.

For the mono version the 'confusion' is minimized and I find myself focusing more on the geometry and the specularity of the image.

$0.02!
