That curve again!
If I had curves like that, then I'd flaunt them too...

Lovely picture, thank you!

I always love the muted colours of your photographs Grant, nothing too striking to draw the eye to one thing in particular, at the expense of the image as a whole.

The figures and smoke really bring that mill to life; it has to be one of my favourite line-side industries I've seen, in any scale. That conical spark arrestor quite suits the Regner.

Regards,
Aaron

Great photos, Grant. Somehow, you always seem to get the light just right. Do you generally try and take photos early or late in the day?

A few shots from today's run with the Hunslet. Full sun but a cool breeze showed up the steam for once.

Great pictures, Grant
I'm sure you've posted some before, but I don't recall having seen the trestle before

Nice as always, Grant.
I love the view of the watermill in the background through the trestle, makes it seem more 'real' somehow.

Oooooooooooooo!

I just love it when Grant posts more photo's. I really feel like I'm there when I look at them - almost to the point of smelling warm creosote and steam and hearing the escaping steam from the loco's over the noise of the countryside surroundings.

Thanks Grant, you've improved my day no end!

Seems you can articulate my thoughts better than I can! :lol:

Seeing new photos of the line and it's stock is always an inspiration.
