Evening freight train from Porthmadog crosses Pont Croesor

Gorgeous light and reflections, Peter. You have made a freight train to look as romantic as the Orient Express.

Thank you so much Amelia,

Your kind words are much appreciated!!
Of course when the location is close to where you live, it is easy to visit many times, and one day the conditions will be right!

Best Wishes

A very well composed shot Peter ~ I second Amelia's comment above

Thank you so much Nick

Of course this was on Pano in days gone by. Maybe you remember it from there.
I am pleased I got the reflection angles right, but I didn't expect it to turn the locomotive silver!!
Glad you like it!!

What a wonderful reflections Peter.

Thank you so much Jaap

I'm glad you like the scene. When steam trains cross this bridge, it is usually bunker first, and so not very photogenic, but we don't have that problem with the diesel!!

A lovely shot Peter. Great reflections and I love the light. Your composition is spot on as always. Nice one, - I love it.

Hi Carol.

Thank you so much for your very kind and enthusiastic visit. The evening sun always looks nice when it shines in this valley. All we need is the train!!

Hi Peter ,
Every detail, so well defined, is recomposed in a luminous harmony through the splendid light and reflections.
The freight train goes and I with it ... :-)

Hi Bea

Thank you so much! Your kind words have made me very happy!! In reality this was a nice bonus picture at the end of a day. I had tried a number of conventional pictures, but little did I know that this humble freight would be the best of the lot!
