The TP52 - 2026 Oy's Bonkers Beffudlements 2026. Week 13 : The Night Sky

[LC2]

You're lucky with Carnforth being in the norf.
We're getting very little mainline steam down south these days.

Nice shot. I think it would work for the tech too.

Cracking train shot

The yellow hazard stickers? are a bit eye catching- suppose they are meant to be -but safety first

Thanks

Any loco travelling on lines with overhead electrics must have those warning stickers.

 

[AlanDorset]

That has some great action and colour.

 

[NickD]

I like that a lot, just the right moment. You can almost hear and smell the scene.

Not what I was expecting from you Dave and that was brave, getting so close to a Swan.
Nicely sharp which I feel is important with such a close up shot

 

[AlanDorset]

Definitely the swan, great splash of orange colour lifting the whole image

Nicely shot, I like the crop of the neck coming in from the top corner.

Haha - 35mm would be way too cloase. They can break your arm you know
