Essential maintenance

A big thank you to everyone who looks in/comments on my shots.

Lester, Gareth and I decided to go to Kew Bridge Steam Museum today - a good place to visit when the weather's not very nice.
This man was starting up an engine in order to check it over and carry out some day-to-day maintenance on it.
He can be seen in this shot as well : ( http://365project.org/dulciknit/on-the-day-extr/2012-04-07)

The lighting in the museum was a bit of a nightmare; I had to use the highest ISO setting and the light was a real mix : natural daylight, fluorescent, and a few tungsten bulbs (not so common now in the UK) for good measure! I used the fluorescent light white balance setting and warmed the shot up a little afterwards.
You have certainly got a clear and detailed shot, you sorted the light etc well.
