Tornado is seen heading west with just one carriage ready to haul the Help for Heros special.It was raining a goodun so I took this shot through a small gap in the car window. After 35 years as a "Milkie" I don't do rain anymore.
Regards to all and thanks to Andy for his advise on re-sizing pictures.

Nice one, I note we both use the same camera, as a matter of interest what lens do you use?
Cheers

Hi George V
Yes,I do use the Canon 500D and am very pleased with the results. Most of the time I use the 18-55 Canon lens that came with it but also have a Canon 70-300 which is the one used for Tornado.Not wound out too far as I was fairly close to the track. The only downside with lens is that it doesn't have image stabilisation so need a tripod or wall etc.
Kind Regards
Robbie

Much the same as I feel about the camera. I recently upgraded from a 350D, and am well pleased. I use the 18-55 IS and the 55-250 IS, but have just purchased a 28-105 II USM on e-bay for sensible money and after quite some research,that I'm finding is just the job for most use, and the USM is so quiet. The wide angles of the 18-55 was ideal in the NRM recently. I hasten to add that the camera is far superior than the geyser pointing it, and I have a lot to learn!
