The Great Dorset Steam Fair 2014 - Part 1 - The Mud - A Dave Holden Video

Описание: The Great Dorset Steam Fair Part 1 - MUD !

Well here we are again, at the end of the 2014 steam rally season, and to round it off we are at the Great Dorset Steam Fair near Blandford Forum.

Unfortunately though, due to the heavy rain on the Bank Holiday Monday the site became saturated. The heavy transporters and service vehicles that move around the grounds churned up the mud and by Wednesday when the gates opened to the public. The entire site was virtually impassable.
Which put a halt to all traffic moving within the area and as a consequence it sadly brought a stop to most of the arena events.
This part one video covering Wednesday through to Friday is a testament and tribute the the Great British public who having parted with their lucre donned their wellies and trudged through acres of the deepest and thickest mud I have seen. determined that the weather will not get the better of them.

They say that at the GDSF your're either going to get the mud or the dust. - I know which I prefer!

This video is captured in 4K UHD by the Panasonic GH4, resolving the best rendition of mud you'll find.
Due to the strong winds though there is a fair bit of wind noise on the soundtrack which also shook the light travel tripod a fair bit.
Look out for part 2 which will be the Friday night evening show with the Showmans engines lighting up the sky, and part three which will be the regular steam show.
