I vote for the Fist Great Western HST, 07. Repeat, Fist Great Western. The "r" is missing. To be honest, some of the others - especially 12 - look more like paintings than photographs. And as usual I will score zero. How's that for optimism?

It'll probably be another 'nul points' week for me as well :P

As usual my entry was vice another that in hindsight, I probably should have entered instead: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p242/2007dmc122007/P3030130c.jpg

In my opinion it's too noisy, but with a noise reduction filter applied it's too blurry

5 - simply stunning, kudos to the owner. I also liked the Acklington shot.

I've gone for number 6, lovely looking station. Whilst 5's a good photo, doesn't really fit the category, and I didn't think Kidderminster had it's third platform finished yet, shows how long it's been since I last went (Oct 09 for Tornado)

I've gone for 13, because it simply feels like what a small station is all about. Some of the others were just trains that could have been anywhere. I did think that 11 would be an excellent jigsaw picture, though.

Acklington for me nice photo

Whilst the front of the train is well lit, the side is very very dark, there's an interesting sky with those clouds, but the framing including the left hand platform seems a little odd. Keep trying though, nice ingredients for a shot were there, just the angle of the light knackered it a bit.

There's nothing wrong with the photo apart from the fact it's a dmu in a small station rather than a small station with a dmu in it, if you see what I mean.
The eye is drawn to the train which is the dominant feature and not the station.

Had you widened the view to take the emphasis away from the train it would have fitted the criteria better, ie. small stations.

Hope this helps.
