Heavy metal returns

[mumrar]

There's nothing like a good bit of heavy metal in the morning, particularly if it's climbing a big gradient too. Here is a shot of 6M70, the train I failed to get in sun on Monday, having only just woken up in time to see it today!
Check out the heat haze too.

Good one, Matt; cracking quality of morning light too. I can feel the ground shaking when I look at that shot (and I fondly remember the shakes from pairs of 56's on full ammeter on the Llanwern ore...)

Great photo, what camera do you use, and lens type?

I use a Canon EOS 450D and the lens was a [deep breath] Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 EX DG HSM Macro Mk1. Shot @ISO 200 1/640s f/6.3.

Even though it was a shed the radiator thrash was truly epic, nothing like the sound of an engine (or two) working it's guts out as they were here.
