East Anglia Railway Museum

.........Situated between Braintree and Colchester in Essex. This railway museum held a WW2 themed day with a working steam loco and a troop of Dads Army look-a-likes.

I dusted my Panasonic GF2 +14mm off for a few shots. It was easier to handle and with better results than my 5D Canon. (photos which also feature here)

I have posted elsewhere, and thought it worth posting here to be different.

Thanks for a nice set - good to see the colour/sepia/B&W comparison. I would have added a typical day of British eccentricty but then I've seen Genster's shots of carnival & WW2 military camps.

Pete, I enjoyed your gallery much. It presents incredible mixture of B&W/sepia + colour, wide + midrange, people + tech, all of them presenting your special processing.

Do not take it wrong, but usually a photograph shows all its beauty displayed full size. However, some of your works look incredible in this reduced preview size losing some magic when viewed bigger (like sort of surreal feeling in #2). Is it good or bad? I do not know, but it seems you are mastering both worlds - large prints and postcards.

BTW, sepia fits that shot much better than colour better emphasizing the vintage look.

Thanks all for the comments.

Peter, no offence taken at all. I think that smaller prints often look better than their grown up larger version. Probably due to the photo being condensed into a bijou, jewel like representation of the larger version. Don't forget that screen resolution has an effect too, and that the printed version looks many times better than the screen resolution version. (usually)
cheers
