Steam trains in the UK

This initial shot was taken at Grosmont in the North York Moors national park around 2009. It was shot using my all time favourite Nikon F3/MD-4 with a Nikon 135mm f2.8 AIS lens. Film was only Ilford FP4+ which was processed using ID-11 at 1+1. I say only because the image is not quite sharp and that was due to the slow film speed and therefore the slow shutter speed.

I used to live in Pickering during 2005-2012 and got to visit the NYMR quite a lot.

This next photograph was taken at Swanwick Junction in Derby using a Hasselblad 500CM with Carl Zeiss 80mm. Love this place during the summer.
