My Dear Füsun,

Thank you so much for your very quick visit to this picture. I am pleased that you like it, despite being very early morning, and freezing cold!!
At least there are lots of sheep, with big woolly coats!

Love Peter

Hello Peter what a lovely shot indeed of the Dutchess steaming along .. rather looks like the sheep have seen it all before :))

Saved in fav's with a YS

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve,

Glad you like it. I had gone out hoping for some glimmer of a sunrise, but no. Just dull, cold, and grey. When I saw the sheep, I figured I'd try a bit scenic, hoping they wouldn't run away. As you say, they must be used to loads of trains passing..

Best Wishes
Peter

Hi Peter,

I can almost hear the chuff-chuff as this beautiful engine travels along! I love the addition of the sheep....good framing!

Best wishes, Rosa.

Thank you so much Rosa

I am glad you like the context that this express train finds itself in.. I was looking for something a little different than just the train itself. I guess the sheep are used to trains passing every few minutes. The sheep in Wales always run away!!

Best Wishes
Peter
