    Happy new year to you all..

    I thought I would share an interesting take on railway photography - long exposure photos. I started experimenting with shutter speeds early last year, and having photographed one car trail too many, I took the concept to the trains on the local Severn Valley Railway.

    See for yourself..!

    Has anybody else tried something similar, I'd love to see.
    Thanks,

    I think I used full -2.0 exposure compensation on that one, I was pleased with the result. Thank you.
