This was a picture that, once again, pushed the camera

to the limits of its operation! 60039 'Dove Holes', leading the 6D43 18.47 Jarrow to Lindsey oil train, did not stop at York station but it had slowed to a walking pace meaning a picture was just possible. Using a shutter speed of 1/10 sec. enabled the train to be captured with just a hint of motion blur, there is actually more in the lady walking by the side of 185146! If I had waited until the train had cleared the footbridge and composed a better picture, it would have been hopelessly blurred as it was picking up speed rapidly. I really like the challenges of taking pictures after dark and also like the completely different mood that can be created in an image.
