Dave,

Thought I recognised that shot... isn't the light there fantastic. Was there this time last year - staying near Pickering for a week. Loved it. This year - two weeks at home in Sussex.. not quite the same. Thanks for the comment though! Your shot's great !

LH&JC... same loco I snapped - the US one... My post's a bit futher back. Lovered the texture effect of the surface "weathering" on this one.

To keep the current 'mostly on the NYMR' theme going that this thread has taken, here's a shot of 7F 53809 emerging from a cloud of it's own steam at Gromont on 12th July.

My abstract railway themed images for contribution to the thread, although the black and white was taken at the Guinness factory in Dublin, so is not technically a UK image. The other is the cab in the overflow car park at the Churnett Valley Railway taken in July.

Dublin's fine. In fact for this thread anywhere in the world in fine as long as it's railway related, and the photo's composition is 'out of the ordinary'

I took this image last night whilst at the club meeting at the C.V.R, where we meet every night on a Monday.

 

 

A rather pleasing shot I thought.

Hello

 

Here are another two from me. The second one is screaming for a caption...

These were taken around 23-00 on a drizzly night at Ropley shed on the Mid Hants Railway. They are quite poignant for me as they were taken on my little point and shoot Sony after my last drive on 60019 Bittern before it left the MHR. Possibly my last ever drive of an A4 as well.

Some fantastic shots here - One thing does strike me though - where is the speed? On the moving train pictures everyone appears to have "stopped" the locos as if they aren't moving? Why? Has no one ever thought to drop the shutter speed and capture the motion?

 

You mean as in this shot , see > http://www.dudleys-photos.co.uk/p67029823.html

Something like 1/60 or 1/80th second on the shutter speed and a corresponding aperture.

 

- regards,

Dudley

Not sure what happened to these, the film must have been damaged (Kodak Porta 160 NC (expired I think):

Lots of great photos here, but this one seems special to me. Lots of interesting lines and shadows - and the sense of late night set off against the coloured streak from another world! Quite brilliant, I think.

[Peter Kazmierczak]

Thanks Mikkel.

 

This one doesn't really need a caption.

[46444]

There's some really good images on here.

 

Here's a few of my shots taken at Peterborough (10/4/10):

 

 

 

And one from Carbis Bay near St.Ives (20/6/10):

Sometimes the mistakes make the best photos.
