If you hadn't said it was taken recently, I would have called this a perfect picture from the 1950s. As it is, it is a perfect picture of a heritage steam locomotive.

This is absolutely beautiful. Love the steam that seems to be hugging the train. It is a nice touch to be able to see the few people standing in that front car. Great job.

Arieth [2010-08-24 16:05:37 +0000 UTC]

This shot is beautifully composed. The steam adds to the effect, and creates a wonderful sense of motion. You can really tell that the train is about to depart. The human element of this piece is what really makes it powerful. It turns a picture of a train into something that people can all relate to. In effect, it allows you to place yourself in the spot of one of the engineers. This makes it all the more visually interesting. Overall, nice job at turning a common subject into an uncommonly good image.

Very cool shot! How were you able to make a photo from that angle? The steam gives it this nice old western film look.

Amazingly you are the first person to ask that question

I took it from an old wooden footbridge as the steam train passed under it.
