Ex-GWR Castle Class no. 5029 "Nunney Castle" passes through Evesham with the down "Elgar Explorer" for Worcester.
Taken with the Minolta Dynax 505si using a 70-30mm lens and Fujicolor Superia ISO 800 film. The choice of film was prompted by the weather, which was overcast at the time of taking this picture. By the time of the return leg to London later that day, the rain had set in, so I feel that the choice of high speed film was justified.
I've put this through Paint Sho Pro, reducing the noise and modifying the light levels, expecially in the shadows to put more emphasis on the motion. This version also has some imperfections removed.
