February, 2008 - FirstView Pictures
      #604614 - 31/01/2008 23:58

This thread is for posting of FirstView pictures for the 1st of February, 2008. Please read the main About FirstView post, if you have not done so already. You may post only one image here, and it must have been taken on the 1st of February, 2008. Please remember to include the basic details - time and place of shooting, and what we're looking at. If you want to put in a short paragraph explaining what's going on, or why you chose that one, or whatever, then please do, but keep it brief and relevant. Any discussion beyond that can go in the 'Comments' thread. Please do not post comments or other replies here - they will be deleted. This thread is for FirstView image posting only.

The picture thread will remain open for a few days in the first instance, so please try to get your contributions in promptly. People who are perhaps away from home, or need time for film processing, or are otherwise unable to post their images in the initial time slot should pm me - I'll re-open the thread later in the month for late additions. In all cases please remember that the forum image posting rules apply (see HOW TO POST IMAGES - MAXIMUM SIZES - Free progs - Tutorials...).

Finally, once again I would like to draw your attention to the new FirstView Gallery site - we would like as many contributors as possible to make use of this for hosting their FirstView images in order to maintain as complete an archive as possible for the future. Of course if you prefer not to you are still welcome to contribute to the FirstView threads with images hosted elsewhere.

Taken with the camera on the mobile phone, because everything else is packed.
See you in two weeks, guys!

Not quite as much snow as was falling yesterday but still enough for a few white blurry bits in a pic



Camera says 10:22 but I reckon it must still be on BST so that'll be 9:22 in real money! Standing at the back door about to put the recycling out for collection.

Ferrari Trucks [Re: huwevans]
      #604933 - 01/02/2008 17:08



On my way to pick up my car from the garage I came across these wagons used by Ferrari for merchandise/corporate events etc. They've just moved in to the area which is a surprise as Williams F1 are just the other side of the old airfield.

Taken using a Fuji F10 (for same day posting), this was around dinner time as I made my way to Lily's Pork Shop in Sheffield - purveyors of the tastiest buns around these parts. As is the norm for us Sheffield folk I was stuck in a traffic jam listening to Aerosmith and then we had a fiercesome hailstorm.

Barrow-upon-Soar train crash





Big news on the railways, especially at my depot as this was one of our services driven by a colleage.

I was given the job of driving the crashed train back to sidings in Loughborough. Full story in the comments thread and loads more pics on my Flickr site
