Utv in Northern Ireland did a similar thing last year. They went around different farms over here and filmed them over twelve months. It is currently being showed on Monday nights. Here is the link. http://www.u.tv/utvplayer/video/142840

Thank you for all the comments. It is appreciated. Good to see there is interest in pictures from years gone by. There will be plenty more interesting silage ones to come.

Next batch are a selection of photos from McCombes farm, Comber, Co. Down. This was a cereal and potato farm.

Thanks for the comments. Plenty more photos to come. A few silage ones from JD Townley. These were taken at Newtownards airport.

It looks like a 390 with qd cab. I was wandering the same about the dancing diggers. I am sure someone on here will know.

Construction stands and the dancing diggers display.

I managed to get the lend of some photos from the 80's and 90's. I enjoy seeing farming photos from the past. I will post some and if there's interest I will post more. Balmoral Show - Northern Ireland's biggest show in the late 80's.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I will try a few a few more test pictures.

I enjoy taking photos of farm models and real machinery at shows. I use a Fuji 12.2 mega pixel camera. I am dissapointed at times with the picture quality. I have tried it on idiot mode as well as adjusting other settings including the iso, scene setting etc. Here are two pictures as an example. This one is iso 200. This one is iso 800. This is particulary poor and is very hazy. Alot of my photos come out like this regardless of the setting. I describe the quality in both photos as a haziness and not sharp.This usually happens at shows ie, Agritechnica, model shows, sheds where the lighting is either very bright or not well lit. The above photos were taken in my shed which is quite well naturally lit. It was a cold day. Am I using the wrong setting or is Fuji cameras not ideal for poorly lit scenes? I would be grateful for any suggestions or help that anyone can give me. Thanks.
