What a gorgeous shot again. Another candidate for cover of your steam railway picture book that many will love to have

looks like the lens has struggled with chromatic abberation on #1 (on the wires) or it's the sharpening which is doing this? a good image, the condensed compact comp with the layering of wires and full plume are a treat, it would be worth another look in PS to finish this off fully. Sorry to sound critical on this, I'd just like to see the full potential of the shot realised.
