Hi Sarah ,
Your visit is most welcome. Thank you.
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed the smoke laden atmosphere of the engine shed..
Best Wishes,
Peter

This has a very nostalgic touch to it - great!

Thank you so much Erhard,

I am so pleased that you like the effect. Early morning this shot is directly into the sun, so add a little mist from the river, and some smoke from the locomotives.....

The locomotive is standing in the yard at Cheddleton, about the same place as the 'Battle of Britain' loco in the background of this picture www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/44406072

Hello Peter what a well presented shot here and one with great atmosphere for sure

saved in fav's with a YS by me also

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve,

I am so pleased that you have enjoyed it. This was early in the day, before it got into trouble with overheated bearings,,,, I wanted to capture the preparation of the loco... which was into the rising sun..

Best wishes,

Peter

This is beyond words Peter !!

What Jaap said... I can smell the damp smoke smell.

Hi Graham

Thank you for your kind visit. It is always worth the effort of going round the yards very early or very late...

Aus der mystischen Stimmung taucht die Dampflok auf, Peter.
Sie ist begleitet von einer Schattenfigur.
Fantastisch festgehalten.

Freundliche Grüße und einen angenehmen Abend
Erich

Thank you so much Erich,

I am really happy that you have enjoyed the effect here. The steam and smoke do hang in the still air quite well here...

Best wishes

Hi Peter, what a fabulous picture! So beautifully atmospheric, I feel I can hear all the sounds of the engine and preparations!!

Best wishes, Rosa.
