Wanted: New Picture for Membership Cards
« on: September 08, 2021, 10:31:50 AM »
We are about to order a new batch of membership cards and I'd like to "refresh" the picture used on the paper with each batch.

It needs to have some specifics - To be a "Clean" close-cropped shot of one of our vehicles, preferably with the front to the left of the image - it needs to stand out when printed at about 2in square.

What have you got in your archives, feel free to set something up if you like !   I've got a couple of weeks to get something to the printers, we have 500 cards left...

One of the original drafts to give an idea..

Nice pics, Tom.
But is that flag exclusionist?

Worms eye view one? Maybe the wrong colour for a white piece of paper.

I like the pale green truck cab ploughing through the ford.

I favour something that looks more to the era of a bygone age, as represented by the Series 11. A shiny modern photograph just doesn't do it for me.

A painting or sketch would fit the bill brilliantly. Maybe situated on a farm doing what they were built for.

One of my all-time favourite paintings is that by David Shepherd. Titled "On Shed". As atmospheric as you could imagine and a wonderful representation of the age of steam.

Follow this link and then hover your cursor over the painting to see the magic

Some interesting thoughts, the plan is to refresh the image with every batch of cards and to use members vehicles if at all possible.

So far we have not had a "lights in grille" one as far as I can remember ?  By all means a "working" image, we've already had a "splashing through a ford" shot...
