I discovered this orphan photograph on the hard drive. There was an announcement from the computer that the original file had been lost. So I recreated it via a screenshot and a conversion to JPG. I must have deleted it having judged it to be crap. But I like it better now. East Somerset Railway, Cranmore. Nikon D40 and AF-S Nikkor 28-200mm VR lens.

Nikon D700 + Nikkor-O.C 35mm f/2 lens, factory AI'd.

Botaurus is the Latin word for the bird commonly called the bittern. There is a steam locomotive named 'Bittern'. Maybe there is some connection between the carriage in my photograph and that locomotive. Nikon D700 + Nikkor-O.C 35mm f/2 lens, factory AI'd.

The 'W' prefix indicates there is space for a wheelchair.
