3pm, harsh sun and clear blue skys far from ideal – but they wouldn’t wait ’till 9:30pm!
Converted to B&W using ‘Calculations’ method.Taken with a Canon EOS 7D and a Sigma 10-20mm f/4 at 11mm
All comment welcome.

I love trains :-)
However, this one does nothing for me. I know conditions were tough, but the blown sky is a killer. The main gripe I would have is the rail line on the right draws your eye away down under the bridge in the distance. I keep looking down there, coming back to the engine but then off down the tracks again. The railings and building up on the left platform are also a big distraction.
I do however love the movement of the smoke and steam.My 2c worth!
