Scunthorpe Skyline
66550 departs the Iron Ore unloading facility within Scunthorpe Steelworks. She will be heading back to immingham docks for the next load.
It was a wet miserable March morning which dampened the spirit. The going was hard through mud, water brambles and more mud. I frequently told myself "you are too old for this" and " its only a Class 66". Even after taking the shot I wasn't convinced I had got a decent shot in the bag.
It wasn't until I got home and started the editing process that the shot revealed itself. The grey wetness of the day coupled with the industrial back drop and foreground works well IMHO.
Hope you agree.
