Great shot Dave, I did, however, expect shots of trains...just sayin'...

Did the "spaceship" fly around?

Ta Simon. I'm about 4 years into this and it's made a big difference to how I feel and function

I think they look very cool, but they start at £1900. For a new style guitar you might not like after a month of getting to know it, seems a bug chunk of change.

Huh?

Great shot Dave and excellent people skills getting that young lad to pose!

Huh?

Its surprising how similar forums running the same software and theme can look

Shot works well and something I keep meaning to start doing before, or after, the dog walk in morning.

 

[Nostromo]

Nice idea for the theme, it works well.

Thanks Dominic

Nothing better than Tai Chi in the morning. Almost looks like you're holding the decoration on the wall.

Week 16 : Monuments to human endeavour...

Back today after 3 days at The Severn Valley Railway Spring Steam Gala.

Here's the star of the show - BR Class 8 No.71000 'Duke of Gloucester'. The only one of it's class made. It's a bit of a beast and a true 'Monument of Brtish Engineering!'
Seen here departing Highley Station bound for Kidderminster.

 

[NickD]

That's a beast!

Nice composition, and I really like the signal (?) sticking out of the steam. I'd have probably cloned that out, but I'm glad you didn't.

That signal is actually for trains going the other way, which is why it is 'off'. The Signal it's cleared for go by is the black and white one pointing down

 

[Boots]

Monumental!

Cracking monument Dave
