This reminds me of a photo from the 19th century. Nicely done John!

Lovely shot John! The engines look majestic, just waiting... Love the lighting, too.
I removed the duplicate link, so no problem ;)

Intriguing the way one's eye wanders round the picture to find the 'subject' - the main object of focus - fails, and examines the photo again.

I am still very much a beginner with this Olympus and mono is going to be a challenge. I agree that film would have made a better job.

Looks great. I had hoped to take a similar photo yesterday but it was too cold for the steam engine and the museum used a more modern locomotive.

I like these train shots! Nice tones. And yes, it's my intention to post Holga shots. We shall see how my first attempts come out!

A place for me :-)

I once visited the Railway museum in York - with only a tiny compact camera :-(

Good photo! I also like old locomotives!

Wow!


It looks really a photo of a century ago.

Great shot!
