Now THAT is beautiful!

I tend to usually prefer colour images but you have done such a great job of shooting and processing this.

What camera and lens did you use please?

 

[Ryewolf]

Thanks Robin. I used a Canon 800D + Canon 24-105mm F4 L

.... Cheers. And did you shoot it in Monochrome Picture Style or convert to mono in post.

The lighting and its variations is superb - Very pleasing to look at indeed and especially as a steam enthusiast.

convert to mono in post.

It was converted to mono in Nik Silver Efex using a preset I created.

.... Nice conversion. I am pleased to see you haven't HDR's the smoke & steam to hell and back like too many train photographers do!
