    What a trooper, car firmly stuck in the mud, but still thinking about the 68.

      Thank you, Peter, it was a little frustrating to say the least as I’d wanted to try a few shots around that crossing, another trip beckons when we’re free.

    Been binge watching all your videos since discovering your channel a couple of days ago Andrew. Really enjoying them, the trials and tribulations and showing the times it doesn't go quite to plan is refreshing to see. Really appreciate the effort that must go into these videos and the end photos. Keep up the good work.

      Thanks very much Robert, I’m pleased you’re enjoying the channel, producing video is all a learning curve, but it’s really enjoyable and I’ve plenty of ideas up my sleeve.

    Nice one Andy, what a nightmare for you getting your car stuck.......more entertaining than the 68s.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад +1

      Thanks Eddie, what a nightmare indeed I was on the verge of phoning the AA, it was more frustrating that I was missing all the shots I’d planned, it all adds a bit of drama to the day.

    I've just come back from a camping holiday at castle Howard. We spent an afternoon swimming in the river derwent at Kirkham Abbey. My nephew loves trains so enjoyed watching these come through. When I got home I did a search for him on here and found your video. It's a lovely video and I've enjoyed watching quite a few of your others. Well done! Thanks for the videos

      Thanks Ron, I made a return visit at the weekend and what a difference to December, lots of activity around the river at Kirkham, it's a stunning part of the world to spend an afternoon.

      Thanks, Robert, I'm pleased you found it entertaining, I had a great day and I'd no idea how the mud episode might have turned out. There isn't a shortage of vantage points in this short section and I will return, hopefully in the spring.

  • @peterhanahoe4913
    @peterhanahoe4913 3 года назад +1

    Really enjoyed that but most of all, amazed by the coincidence of me spotting this having been looking at that stretch of line for photo spots only earlier on today, excellent.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Excellent, Peter, well that is some coincidence. Its a great stretch of line and I have every intention of returning soon, I count get the longer distance shots that I wanted with the mist, I fancy getting there soon before it turns too green for the summer, but also an autumn visit when the trees have turned.

  • @picardie01
    @picardie01 3 года назад +1

    That's a really nice video, a beautiful countryside and a "so british" atmosphere with this (almost) dark light and rainy weather. and of course with tipycally and nice trains. Good job.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Glad you enjoyed it, this is a lovely part of the county, not the weather I had hoped for, but it was winter. I’m planning to re-visit in the summer as a comparison.

    Just watched this one Andrew! Hilarious, just don’t know where you find the patience. But credit to you: in the face of adversity - gotta get the train! I’ve been in similar pickles myself but have not always recovered as well as you. Another great production, thank you!

    Saw the point about the focusing, its a nightmare in auto. Was up Blea Moor one time and thought about going manual as the rain was coming down on the portal exit to the tunnel. Could not get it to focus. Had a brief break in the weather and shot the loco in auto; lucky break. The quality of these videos is fantastic. Real documentary material. The editing is good, music is just right and at the right volume going up and down when you comment on something. Super work again. That last picture of the 68 going through the level crossing was spot on. I am beginning to see what you are doing in the processing; now.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Cheers, Keith, yes going manual limits the amount of compositions you can get of a train, but its probably worth it when there’s a risk of coming away with nothing. I’m really pleased what you say about the videos, I’m no expert, just fumbling my way along.

      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Thanks so much, the mud episode was rather frustrating at the time but I'm glad I recorded it, you never actually know how these events will turn out, there's no rehearsal, I could have just come straight out in one go, which secretly is what I wanted. Glad you enjoyed the video.

      Thanks Simon, that’s great I’m really pleased you’re enjoying the videos, it a smashing location and I intend to go back in different conditions, there’s a couple more spots closer to Malton I wanted to try. The last image is my favourite too, I was pleased the two cars arrived giving that extra bit of illumination.

    Thanks for the videos Andrew, I have only just discovered you, and am binge watching!! this one in particular has brought back memories of chasing the Scarborough Spa Expresses during the 80s. Kirkham Abbey was one of my go to places… particularly a field across the river that put the Abbey ruins in the background. I haven’t photographed for years and all my kit is out of date now (pre-digital) so not cheap to get going again unfortunately, as much as I would like to!! Sorry to see you plight…. Very brave to video it!!!!

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  Год назад

      Many thanks for the comment Ian, and thanks for watching the videos too, hopefully they bring back memories of the enthusiasm getting lineside. That section of the Scarborough line is stunning, I can see why its so popular.

  • @notyhbynorthwest
    @notyhbynorthwest Год назад +1

    Hi Andrew, OMG this was both brilliant and hilarious. The mist over the River Derwent was glorious. The results were spectacular. But your driving skills, not so much!!! For some strange reason, the character of Unlucky Alf from the Fast Show comedy series flashed through my brain. And when you said "I am buggered", I just about lost it. (For the uninitiated, Unlucky Alf always ended his skits with "Oh Bugger!") I really, really enjoy your videos both for the brilliant photography, but also for the way you present it. Cheers, Ian.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  Год назад

      Excellent, Ian, many thanks for that, I'm still living with that trip, yes I was buggered - those rugs that I used were my wife's - best was to describe it - she wasn't best pleased! I really appreciate you comment, that day was quite the adventure.

  • @droneseyeview400
    @droneseyeview400 2 года назад +2

    Really enjoying these video's, after seeing your NE viaduct one I decided to watch them from the start, as a few other people have said they are very well presented and put together, keep up the great work and I can't wait to see the rest of them.
    PS - next time you want to film from a narrow footpath on a bridge in the dark it might be safer wearing a different colour coat and trousers to black 🙂

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  2 года назад

      Many thanks for making the effort to watch and comment, it is appreciated. yes Black in the dark is not the best choice for road safety.

    @hullhistorynerd 3 года назад +2

    Blimey, that really was quite the adventure! I hope you didn't get into too much trouble about those blankets... Beautiful shots though. The fog really lends a painterly quality to the scenes.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад +2

      Thanks, It was more of an adventure than I’d ever anticipated, but still all good fun, by the way it was the signal man doing the crossing at Howsham who was a big fan of yours. Oh, and I did get into real trouble for the blankets- they belong to my wife.

  • @robc9845

    Really enjoying your videos ,your calmness in presentation makes em really enjoyable.
    The car incident shows how easy wet mud can just take you away,luckily it was flat and not a drop,personally know how easy that is from family experience on the A65!

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Thanks Rob, I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos, the wet grass/ mud is deceptive, just that slight incline mad it impossible to get going- lessons learnt.

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  3 года назад

      Thanks, Marcus, there was a worry I might be stuck for some time, which was frustrating as I'd a few more shots planned, anyway I did get a pleasing number of shots in the end and the mud did make it a memorable day out- my wife still hasn't forgiven me for the blankets though.

      Thank you for subscribing, that’s really appreciated. I’m pleased you enjoy the photographs, I’m using the channel to show what goes on to actually get some of these shots. As for the blankets, they’ve been soaked, washed, washed and washed again all by my fair hands👍.

    Hi Andrew, I've been doing railway photography for about a year now, i currently shoot in TV mode, would it be worth switching to full manual thanks

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  4 месяца назад

      Many thanks, I guess its down to personal preference, TV mode is great to ensure you have a fast enough shutter speed to 'stop' the train and the camera takes care of everything else. I prefer manual mode as I like to chose the other settings depending upon the scene/location and situation.
