Lock reflections at Ganny Lock on the Calder & Hebble Navigation just outside Brighouse Town centre.

"Calder: Hypermobility" a display of mobile sculptures by Alexander Calder (1896-1976). The American sculptor developed in the early 1930s a new kinetic art form
Here is a link of his exhibition @MoMa now, if you will:

Flamingo, created by American artist Alexander Calder, is a 53-foot (16 m) tall stabile located in the Federal Plaza in Chicago. Calder gave the stabile its color, which has come to be called "Calder red",[5] to offset it from the black and steel surroundings of nearby office buildings, including the Ludwig Mies van der Rohe-designed Kluczynski Federal Building. Despite the massive size of the sculpture, its design is such that viewers can walk underneath and around it, thus enabling one to perceive it in human scale. The shape of Flamingo alludes to the natural and animal realm, which is a stark contrast to more literal interpretations in sculpture from previous decades.

The waters of the Calder were incredibly still give a fabulous reflection of both 185116 and the equally fabulous L&NWR 1847 cast Iron double span bridge.
The railway crosses the Calder a number of times between Mirfield and Dewsbury this being the final crossing on the journey east.

Another image from my latest short YouTube video.
Not the most original of spots but another one from the back catalogue that I thought worth a run out during the current lean spell with the camera.
Captured riding over the viaduct at Lobb, Todmorden is Northern's 11.18 Leeds - Manchester Victoria (2M08) service in the hands of a two-car class 150. I was up there scouting locations to snap the Preston - Lindsey tanks and while this was a classic 'must do' spot I have to say the two-car DMU looks much better in the scene than the tanks did, despite the Tug on the front.
The highway is the A646 Halifax Road, and just to the left of that is the River Calder, swiftly followed by the Rochdale Canal. Top left, overlooking the valley, can be seen the tower and church of St Paul's in Cross Stone.

DB Cargo Shed 66015, still in EWS livery, approaches Mytholmroyd station in the Calder Valley with the 7.25am Wilton EFW Terminal - Knowsley empty industrial and domestic waste containers (6M16).
Delivered new to the UK in October 1998 this locomotive is one of the oldest members of the class, now in its 22nd year of operation.
Wherever you look in this part of the world there are hills, and often quite steep ones at that, so it's no surprise the route continually curves as it makes its way up to the head of the valley. And, with little room for the River Calder to 'spread', it's no surprise either that periods of heavy rain can cause serious flooding issues in these parts.
