good shot

53808 on it's way out of Minehead Station Somerset, pulling a full

load of carriages. Shot taken from 300m away with focal length

365mm for background compression and cropped for composition.

All comments very welcome, thank you.

Hi Mehmet & Chris. Thanks for the encouraging comments. Best regards Ken.

The long focal length used brings the background nearer to the railway station, nice colors and overall spectacle!

Best regards, Ken!

Hi Pierre. Thank you for your kind and encouraging comment. Best regards Ken.

This is fabulous!...the little, hill side town in soft contrast to the shine of the train, the same as the  2nd engine in back ground. The train platform juxtapose against the triple rows of windows moving to the top of the building and several other areas draw my eye away from the engine itself, which of course grabs your focus back again and then frees you to explore.  I love it!

Hi Jane. Thank you for your very kind and comprehensive comment, so pleased you like it. Best regards Ken.
