Well, seeing as how I like Brittany, No. 1 for me!

Some good contenders this week, got a real laugh out of the description for #12

 

[Bittern]

14 gets my vote this time. Love the Narrow Gauge stuff.

 

[strange6]

Not one bad photo here which makes it just too hard to call. I've picked No 8

 

[HST Power]

It was 8 or 12 for me.

I'm going with 8.

 

[Sun Chariot]

I'm putting my vote for 12. Always makes me smile when I see a photo of a solitary class 43 DMB. It's a well-lit composition, too.

 

[DarloRich]

Some good ones this week.A really tough call. Well done everyone.

Number 13, for the sense of scale brought about by the locomotive being dwarfed by the West Highland scenery and for the crisp contrast of colour that has been achieved, which I would never be able to do with my humble compact digital so it is a pleasure to see a picture that has done so. I also have a deep seated love for the Gresley K1 and K4 classes

There are a number of good entries this week, as is usually the case, so well done to all who have entered.

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Number 13 for me this week

 

[valenta]

Number 12 is interesting.

 

[CarterUSM]

I like 8.

Agree there Sprinterguy, absolutely lovely picture isn't it. Number 13 for me too

#6 for me, like anything that "Scuttles" and has fore-ground interest as well as subject etc !!

 

[Kokpit]

Excuse my ignorance, still relatively new to the world of train photography, but does a loco with support coach count as light engine?

Kev.

Kev.

The answer to your question lies HERE.

 

[Kokpit]

Doh!

Thanks Toni.

[EltonRoad]

That would be a good shot of any engine, but to have it as a Deltic makes it even more special. Great shot.

 

[sprinterguy]

I came second I think that's the closest I've come to a victory in this competition so far. Well done to willig on his winning entry.

 

[Bittern]

One bloody vote.

 

[Crossover]

One bloody vote.

Better than my none :P

 

[IanPooleTrains]

One bloody vote.

I know the feeling :-x

 

[blackettstreet]

I know the feeling :-x

Me too :cry:

 

[HST Power]

I've never submitted any of my photography and I don't intend to either!

Anyway, well done to Willig. I've seen plenty of Deltic photos but there's a nice angle to that one.

His picture was of a boring deltic coming to a bridge doing nothing :-x

 

[Bittern]

It's not about the subject, but about the picture itself.

 

[sprinterguy]

I like to see photos that capture the spirit of that week's particular theme as well as being well composed, and while I do sometimes wonder at the reasoning behind certain photos share of the votes this is very rarely/never the case with the winning entries each week which are almost uniformly deserving of that status.

It's also worth remembering that at the end of the day this competition is just a bit of fun, and is at the mercy of the personal taste of the individuals who vote!

I know it is in the spirit of fun (quickly hides the knife to stab someone behind my back )
