Hi Nigel

great shot you have here of this narrow gauge railway. maybe you could have cropped a bit to the right as signal seems to be more dominant that the engine but hey..
good work

Well, this one could be used for the box cover of MS-trainsimulator or something like that.
Very nice capture, although I think contrast, colours and sharpness can use a bit of boosting.
Please see my WS

Hi Nigel,

I knew where this was straight away before clicking the thumbnail, Wales is a real favourite place of mine you see :) I've never been on this train but have passed it many times on the road over the wall. The line looks even higher up from this side :)
Great composition here and the rails lead the eye in well. Excellent shot!

I like this composition Nigel. The signal is integral to the scene here and halts the eye going much beyond the oncoming train !

Good perspective with the rails, and they do lead you to the engine without a doubt. Not a fantastic day lightwise, but this is Great Britain LOL. To my eye, I think I want just a tad more sharpness and cannot fathom out why it isn't, because f/11 as quoted should be fine here.

Nostalgic scene Nigel, was a pleasure to view. Regards, Steve.
