They dont make them like they use to. A very nice image, looks great in the light.

Great find …

What an excellent shot. There was something very similar to this on Antiques Roadshow only recently, but I can’t remember how much it was reckoned to be worth. Peter

Thanks Elaine – I’m sure we can buy these in antique shops but I’d hate to think of the price.
George Petrovsky, 4 months ago
G’day Rosalie! Your usual superb composition and treatment have brought this out of the ordinary and transmogrified it into a Work of Art, with your unique stamp on it. You must submit this series to the Railway Museum – they would be dull of soul not to use them for their publicity! :) george

Thanks Sharon – I did have a bit of a juggle dealing with the shine – finally got it to where I felt it was OK without blowing out.

Rosalie ….. this is fantastically processed ….. I can almost reach in and feel the coolness of the basin, .......... having never seen one of these before ….... I’m glad that you described it as a handbasin ….....
Tremendous image, thanks for posting it ….. :))
Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to richiedean’s comment, 13 days ago
I could understand your confusion if you hadn’t seen one before Richie!!! You are so young you probably didn’t ride these old trains … huh?!!! Hugs mate and thanks for the kind words.
