No7 Steam Train - Severn Valley Railway - Hampton Loade 12/7
Have to seriously work on my panning and all round video skills! Let alone PremierPro…
But here you go - steam engine and diesel
Great I still working on that one.
Leaderboard updated!
@lee welcome to the competition
@leeheyes I spent many a childhood school trip at Arundel castle
@Klokman Sorry but we sadly can’t award an additional bonus point for this entry as the other train doesn’t appear to be moving The entry itself is valid and has been added to the leaderboard, but the criteria for the bonus point are that the other train is also on the move. Sorry
Rich, I know hugely frustrating but nothing I can do, it’s a single line and they only cross when at a station and apparently having spoken to a volunteer only one train can leave at a time. Rules are rules it was fun enough getting that shot! Now I need to learn how to not just take stills!
Some great shots being posted and points being gained. Now back from holidays and need to do some catching up - early mornings here I come!
So, I am still here, so thanks for getting me off my butt to join in again.
Since we’re in the land of castles this weekend I was up early for a pic of Abergavenny castle. Probably not particularly notable in itself, but I did bump into another drone pilot here with a Karma - first one I’ve seen.
Anyway, the original castle was built around 1080, but the current red sandstone one was built around 1190 (well according to Wikipedia anyway) with a few extensions since, including the central hunting lodge which, it seems, you can now stay in
Good to see you’re still around Colin @Renni-Aire
Nice to see you Colin, to see you, nice

Time to get this competition started for me. Because the rules restrict me to my country I can’t even use some from my holibobs starting in 12 days
Anyhoo - first up.
