I think I will leave the Whitby shots alone for a bit as I'm sure your getting a bit tired of them.
This was taken about 6 weeks ago, was unsure about uploading but thought what the h*ll.
I cheated a bit by combining two shots to get the right level of water movement.
It was quite an amazing evening as there was a slot between a couple of big thunderstorms where the light was amazing. Whilst its difficult to see here, there was a mist layer on the river, it was more aparant on the ones about 15 mins before this. The combination of the river and the later thunderstorm I was completely drenched when I got back to the car. I must have looked a right site when I got back to the hotel!
Following Johns comments below, my first visit next day was to the paint company who 'used' to supply the paint for the rail bridge.
All comments welcome.

I'll be chugging over this bridge today on my weekly commute home, beautifully toned image.
bit of a shame about all the repair work going on over it.
John
John, the repair work is the continuing painting of the bridge..the old joke. But it is planned for them to use a paint system at last that can last for years (about time too, as I sell the raw materials for it!)
Thanks Paul, I will (enjoy myself that is)... Oh and I think your allowed a bit of creative license once in a while 
Good work. The water has a dream-like feel, clear bright detail but flowing like air.

Cant understand why you were unsure about uploading this.... its a belter!!!!!!!!
Jim
Absolutely stunning image.The large is outstanding.My shot of the week so far.Well done Nick.
Tom.
Stunning. The only word for it. One for the wall and gallery I think.
The storm has created an amazing atmosphere, love the subtle tones, reflections and row of clouds. Masterly processing.
nothing i can possibly add that hasn't already been said. A true masterpiece Nick

Thanks everyone. I tried the crop Mike, it took away from the light on the FG rock. I have a series of portrait format that I will be looking at, but I'm not sure if it will have the impact of this. I couldn't move to the left to negate it either as I was balancing on a rock outcrop - tho I steped into the river retreating!
Don't know why you were unsure about this on Nick, its excellent even though you cheated
Darren.
It's a lovely shot well worth all the accolades, but now I've looked at both I think the portrait version wins for me but just by a whisker because of the water.
