About Colin Arnot


I love British steam trains! but Canadian trains are OK. Earlier images were captured on a Sony DSC-H7, then Canon T1i and now Canon 60D with 18-135 IS lens. I am more interested in recording an interesting train picture than creating the perfect photograph, however I always hope my pics are "acceptable" so others can share my experiences. My pics are my "journal" of railfaning.
