    Chris Milner has completed his judging and congratualtions to the top 3 . Flyingscotsman4472 took top spot with BristleGWR second and me third

    Chris's comments below


    1st – 60007 in the snow. A perfect execution of a difficult shot, that has retained detail in the exhaust and the snow, plus its low angle has not only dealt with the drifting smoke issue A4s have, but has give the shot a much more powerful feel.

    2nd – 70013 panned. Taking panned shots successfully is not easy, but this one of 70013 is near perfect, portraying a great impression of speed.

    3rd – 5043 at Henley. Classic execution of a scene, now sadly lost to modernisation.

    Thanks for your efforts in sorting this Martin and thanks to all those who took part but did not make the top three, we must try harder... and also thanks to Chris for the unenviable task of sorting the winners.

    Well what can I say but many thanks to all those that voted for my shot to make the final in the first place.My thanks also to Sidmouth for his sterling work on the competition much appreciated.My last thanks go to Chris Milner for taking the time to give us his final judgment over all the excellent photographs in last years competition.Getting top spot with this shot makes all the effort we put into our photography all worth while many thanks Chris.
