Super picture with great atmosphere. That B1 must be one of the best looking locos on British lines - it is so well proportioned and has been turned out in its original apple green which is kept spotless.

Excellent timing and a horrendously difficult shot to expose accurately. Well done, I can almost hear the exhaust beats.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Really great capture. I like the composition and the nice texture of the smoke. I also like the 645 like, almost square dimensions of the picture.

Erm, actually.....I let the cameras metering calculate the exposure, it seems to get it right...most of the time!
I trimmed the right hand side of the shot as it didn't do anything for the final image. The trick is to include all the exhaust.
