There is no such thing as British English, there is English and mistakes.
This made me laugh out loud. I do agree and am smiling as I write this.

Also, and as always with images from loadoftripe, (such an oxymoron for a great photographer), I liked his image. Disagree with him, by the way, regarding too much foreground.
Flattery will get you nowhere Urbanmeister !
OK, Copy that, PS. I hate TLA's FWIW........

Bit of free time. Messing with various PP and Gimp, cropped big, too much foreground I think;

Great pictures of a great loco. I know very little about steam stuff, but the metal on the running gear? Looks polished. Very nice, usually covered in black gunge AFAIK.

Yes excellent, PP work brings out the detail superbly, I'm guessing they are not SOOC.

Return visit to the Walkway/gantry/bridge armed with the K1 mk2 and a SMC-M 28mm f2.8.

Firstly many thanks for the kind comments.

I took the old lens as the small 49mm filter thread size lens would hopefully get through the wire mesh security, and it did so no cropping required plus I have many times more pixels!
Tried to get as close to the original photo, here it is;

I forgot to title No.2 - it's a Rain Forest, as designated by the experts, one of only a few in the UK.
