thought I would share one of my favourite landscape pieces I've photographed while in Eryri National Park featuring the Welsh Highland Railway

I keep coming back to what you can do with a train in a landscape. Most of us would frame around it or wait for it to clear the shot, but the way you've put the railway through here makes the whole piece about scale and movement without losing any of the stillness. That's hard to pull off with something man-made cutting through wild ground.

Oh, that changes everything. You were inside the frame the whole time, not outside looking in. That's a completely different thing.

Eryri stays with you. I was up there years ago and still think about the light coming through cloud over slate, that particular quality when stone and sky are almost the same weight. A train through it must have been something to line up.

actually, it was even more trickier than that, what you are looking at is when the train hits the 360° turn. the photo is captured from inside that same train
