Caption

Two old cart wheels still remain in our barn. They had been seriously eroded by time and rain.

Today I rolled them out and shot some photographs in order to make a very special panorama-object combination.

The wheeled car has been a serious improvement over the sledge. Spin-off from this invention was land transportation as we know it now.

La raison d'être du transport terrestre

Deux vielles roues de charrette en bois sont encore dans notre grange. Elles ont été déteriorées par un séjour prolongé sous la pluie.

Je les ai sorties dehors pour en faire des photos qui ont permis de faire ce QTVR panorama-objet combinés assez spécial.

Les charriots à roues ont été une amélioration considérable sur les traineaux. Ils ont été à l'origine des transports terrestres modernes tels que nous les connaissons.
