I'm not quite old enough to remember steam locomotives, so I live vicariously through fine photographs of them, like your dynamic shot above. Everything is well done—composition, depth, motion, and the processing as a monochrome. Thanks for the "new" memory!
Thanks, I'm extremely happy with this one, after my first attempts at shooting it I almost bagged it and went home. It was an out and back run. On the way out I tried to get some shots and failed miserably. I was trying to juggle focus and was trying to shoot continuously which blacked out the screen too much. It was my first 'action' shooting since switching from an SLR and I wasn't ready for the limitations.
For the second shot of it coming back through I set everything up much more carefully and decided I'd have time for about 3 shots as it went by at 45 mph. This is number two. The others were good but this one hit the mark.
