April Photo Competition - Machine
Discussion
Hi all - the theme for this month's competition is: Machine.
Looking forward to seeing your entries - good luck!
The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
Entries and discussion on a single thread, please.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Winners should update the Competition Wiki (it's easy)
Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible.
If after 7 days of a competition ending, either a winner has not been declared, or the winner has not created a new thread, a new thread should be started, with the topic set as whatever the topic was 10 years ago, based on this wiki.
p.s. I've updated the Wiki for the past few months of comps.

Well done NRE - where was the locomotive?
ThanksIt was at the Bluebell Railway near Haywards Heath in Sussex, back when the engine shed was dark and dirty and smelled of oily metal and steam coal and before the made it clean, bright and 'child friendly'.
This was the photo that bought home to me how much better in terms of noise the full frame sensor was at high iso.
