Flying Scotsman with "The Great Britain X"

Hello Peter what a lovely shot indeed ... seems you had the Bit of Sun shining on the trip today and made good use of it

Saved in fav's by me

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve,

for the kind awards, this extremely rapid visit, and of course for the info supplied. Really appreciated.
I had studied the weather forecast, and figured out that this spot gave the best chance of clear skies. Ten minutes later it clouded over....
I will be over to your gallery soon to see how you got on with it.

Best Wishes
Peter

So you two weren't sitting somewhere at the same place to catch the Scotsman? :)) haven't you two posted the same Flying Scotsman? Im not sure, I'll go look again at Steve's..

Best of wishes, Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Thank you for visiting the Flying Scotsman today. You are right, it is the same train, but I saw it 60 miles further south and a couple of hours earlier than Steve did.
The blue sky was a bonus. Last time I saw it the weather was grey and raining!

My dear Peter,

It looks you have catched some nice shots in this morning!
Maybe you had a very short time to catch it with a blue sky and sun ..

Flying Scotsman looks gorgeous again!!

A big YS!

Well sleep!!

My Dear Füsun,

Thank you so much for visiting this photo, the star, and your very kind words. You are right, I had tried to find the blue sky!
When we saw it together www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/43240820 it was raining, so perhaps we were able to share the sunny day too.

Now we can enjoy our Sunday!!

Love Peter

Great capture, well done ;-) I love steam trains. When I visited York, I went to the NRM, and I could have happily stayed in there all day, I loved it.

Thank you so much June,

I am happy that you liked it, and you are very welcome to look at all the other steam trains in my gallery!!

Best Wishes
Peter

Beautifully composed Peter.

Thank you Jaap,

These curves around the banks of the river Ouse can make quite a good picture sometimes!

Best Wishes
Peter

Your beautiful capture is greatly admired
