Thank you David, an experiment really with plenty of errors but doing it has inspired me and I hope to be doing a few variations on a theme.

Reminds me of my teens when there was a scrap yard for hundreds of old steam engines in Barry Dock. Wish I'd had the foresight to take photos. Lovely painting by the way Barry.

Missed this one earlier Barry, they fly off the first page. Smashing work I love industrial landscapes, great atmosphere also.
