Sir Nigel Gresley 60007

Post by engager »

Hi there. I've just joined, and for a first posting I thought I'd share with you one of my favourite photos. It's Sir Nigel Gresley waiting at Stevenage on 6 December 2009 heading the Railway Touring Company special Kings Cross to Lincoln.

Hello, welcome to the forum.

I think that's a nice 'platform end' shot. With the A4s, sometimes you can focus on capturing them and a train at speed and forget about the opportunities when they are stationary. Despite the cloud, you've got some reflections in the streamlining and the composition looks good.
