Railway Museum - In Another Light

243 - So after yesterday evening at the railway museum to see their Illuminating York event, I felt it well worth the effort to go again tonight - and so did huge numbers of others too!

Earlier today I had a good look at the camera manual, to see how best to improve these night shots. Sadly, a bridge camera isn't an ideal tool for this kind of work, but I feel I have made some progress since yesterday's efforts.

Here we have locomotive 'Bahamas' facing towards the turntable, with both the exterior and cab illuminated.
Great shot, I love the lighting Ian! :0)

Thank you Sara - the lighting competition creates some really nice effects - all I have to do is point the camera!
