The fastest Steam Train ever...!

[Bend The Light]

Hi,

I love this engine...The Mallard.

Here's a couple of images processed two different ways. I would like your thoughts on the pics, if you would. Thanks.

Eh? Fast? It's bricks! Where would I find THIS!?!?!
What a cool train!

Could the clouds be a bit bright in both versions?

Well, yes, not THIS actual engine because it is, as you say, bricks! :mrgreen:

It is in darlington, in County Durham in the north of England. Where Stevenson had his "Locomotion" the first real steam engine pulling a train on the Stockton-Darlington railway. I love the original engine, the Mallard, but this is a stunning sculpture - it stands about 20 feet high.

I'll see about the sky...but I need to print, and they will print a little more subdued anyway.

Thanks
