Well captured with good light and loads of steam makes a classic locomotive photo
As above classic train picture the steam definitely makes it
Beautiful shot!
Love the composition too....you really let the steam tell the story.
And crisp detail front to back too....the steam loco is the focus of the image of course, but I do love those old deltics....the noise is incredible!
Thanks. Just shows what a web image can do for depth of field. This was shot at F/4 focus on the front - at 140mm
Superb!
Love that shot of a classic steam train at full steam ahead.
On of OV Bulleid's finest in her original form.
I must say though, I'm not really getting the feeling of motion, maybe due to being in a platform and the exhaust is just drifting.
Geek Alert:
Is the Hoover really providing heat? They are ETH and surely most Mk1s are Steam Heat. Must say, I can't see any steam leaking from between the carriages, which does support your assertion.
You can’t beat a pair of novelty socks, showing a bit to much flesh for my liking
Cool interpretation of the theme!
A fun image indeed....can't even suggest you 'pull your socks up' 'cos you have!
Quite a warm tone to the image, with the beer, table and boots which I think suits the image
Party socks is a good fun shot, nice one.
What fun to have a party for one! Unusual to see a fresh pint untouched. Like the view angle and dof with focus on the wordings.
Hi Dave
Party- Socks, too much leg for me ( lucky they are not in full Focus. But no doubt its on theme with good ecposure and there is a nice pint of beer there as well.
Have a Happy New Year.

Absolutely beautiful image Dave!!
I'm so envious of those who have the skills and geography to produce such amazing long exposure images....you absolutely nailed it....superb composition, expertly processed....perfect!
Wow, absolutely stunning.
That's all I can say. See you in 2019.
Excellent final shot good luck with next years 52 and all the best for the New Year
Were you equipped for the mountain, or did you just have flipflops and shorts?
Well worth the hike up I feel, and good on you for persevering in your search for *the* shot.
