    That's pretty cool how you caught the snow flying up. Does this thing back up on the snow and blow it away does it?

    Actually MA it moves forward and clears the snow. The engine is in the back and the brush is in the front. The brush spins and pushes the snow away.
    At least that's how I think it works anyhow...looking at it I'm not so sure now...lol!
    Actually I think you are right now that I look at the contraption...d'oh!

    And thanks for the kind comments everyone.

    We have those here in Toledo for our campuses. You sit in front of the engine. The large wheels are actually the front and the smaller wheels are the back. The small wheels are also what are used to steer. I know it looks awefully confusing but thats how it works. The brush is just a wild snow brusher, dont get close to one of these are you will get dusted.

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    Very nice work, Casil! Could you send him my way, though? I am so tired of shoveling snow. :(
