Somerset and Dorset Goods Wagon (Detail)

Very nicely spotted Andrew, thats a lovely blue, the lock placed just off centre really works well, I personally would have saturated it a tad more and brought out the colour of those rust stains, but nothing wrong with it as it is.

Andrew - can you just once please post a badly taken boring photograph to make us mere mortals feel better

Another cracker - love those lines and the subtle colours

Thanks for the comments, everyone. But I misled you about the provenance of the wagon. My son tells me it's an ex Royal Naval armaments depot wagon. So now I know!

Not a bad lens for £3.60 is it?

Best wishes,

Andrew

Another great shot

I reckon people may even offer you as much as a fiver for that lens

- Not that I would expect that you would part with it

Lovely colour... great again... and a little bit of rust again, but I love it!
