Hands still not steady this morning at Wymondham Crossing.

 

Well, it was 06.36 (HOW EARLY)!

Something a bit different; I went out to get some pics of the KWVR's new Pacer during the first night of the Beer and Music Festival last week.

First stop was a walk into the woods near my house, for a very abstract shot on the banks of the Worth...

Then down to Ingrow, which was very quiet indeed.  It didn't quite give me what I was after though...

...but did let me do a bit of experimenting.  Not helped by the very lightweight tripod I was using, but I'd left my proper tripod over at my parent's place in Wales in the summer.

Up to Oakworth, where the duty crossing keeper/station master seemed surprised to have a visitor there at all.  Annoyingly the moon, which had been out perfectly, dipped behind a cloud about 5 mins before the unit arrived...

My favourite shot of the night, and in fact one of my favourites I've taken on the line!  I' going to have a crack at doing this with miniatures pretty soon with a bit of luck...

That’s a really great shot. 

Thanks. 😁 Considering I jumped out of the car and pointed the phone as it started to rev up and leave, I was quite impressed it worked. The only drawback being the lamp post out of the cab roof! 🙄

Under a very threatening sky (fortunately my car was close at hand!) at Colne Bridge on 29th December 2022, a TransPennine Express class 185 rounds the curve from Heaton Lodge Junction and heads towards Huddersfield with a service from Hull to Liverpool Lime Street.
