Photographing steam

by davidtrout

Photographers getting amongst the steam at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway at Keighley during the summer. The loco is West Country Class City of Wells. The photographer at the front of the engine appears to be a Pentax user - I wonder if he's a member of this forum.
K3+DA*50-135mm lens.

An unusual shot very well conceived, David.

No one I know but I was hoping someone on here might own up - even the guy himself.
Thanks for all the comments.

Wonderful observations. Not me by the way

One of my favourite railways, although I haven't been there for a few years! The two characters help to make this shot!
