Lucky Shot V2

Just one of those times…the sun was sinking in the west…right place, right time…Shay No9 was out for a walk in the freshly ballasted yard…

Funny…even the powerlines look scale…

Yummy stuff!!!

Great pictures Bart!

The background is far enough away that it looks scale!

By golly! I dooo believe he’s got it!!! Nice shots Bart.

Good thing cause I couldn;t tel ya anyways! I take da camera.....I point it at the choo choo, push da button and make da pretty pitchers! I admire the guys that can operate the expensive gear with all the bells and whistes, I've just never needed it before....Might be time to invest in a 40" high tripod though......

Bart ,
I will condone the word "tripod " and its use . Like a lot of people I have a camera that takes care of all that malarky for me , though I still have my originals with light meters and lots of little leather cases with “WTF is this for” stuff in them .
But you are too modest , the camera cannot capture the moment , you did that , you pointed it in the right direction , and above all had the imagination to do it . So we don’t need the "under the arm shot , 1/125@f22,kadocasa9000flimyingtong lensessunset my grandma wore red knickers " detail .
Just you carry on and give us the delight of looking at some inspired pics .
Thanks , they inspire .
Mike
