Thanks Paul

Yes think the family figures shot is much better.
Think the main issue with the Rhyl shot is the background and the bench a couple of feet in front of the figures, pretty sure no option of getting a good background except through editing, might try that.
 
Nicely done Keith. Almost looks real and would have fooled me if I wasn't familiar with it :)

Thanks Dave, they are quite realistic.
I should have asked someone to pose with the figures, maybe next time we are down there.

Interesting figures I like the silhouettes better

Thanks Allan, think the Rhyl figures would look much more impressive if at a better location.
 
Thought that these were real people... :D . Excellent capture.

Week 22 Vertical

Dr Evan Pierce memorial garden and statue, he did a lot of work during the cholera outbreaks in Edinburgh and Denbigh. Statue was erected during his lifetime which is quite unusual.

Week 24 Street with a bit of track
Hoped to get a train coming up the road but was told next train would be at 12:00 in 2 days :rolleyes::)

Mr Beeching would have something to say about the timetable ! I do like the steam train road sign, would have been tempted to make more if it.

Thanks Alan, I had thought of that at the time but as I was pretty sure I would get a pic of the train on the street I just did a quick shot as back up. Found out later it was a 2 day day wait for the train.

Certainly different!

That's a good one Keith, looks like you got a little black one ready to go down the track.

Nice, I looked at the shot before reading and just assumed the smoke/ steam was a train. I agree the curving track really makes the image.
