43172 ambles past Uffington on 12 February 2008 with the 13:15 Paddington to Cardiff Central First Great service, after the preceding train had been held at signals for 15 minutes. Normally 1/1000 sec shutter speed would be needed for this kind of broadside picture of an HST, but due to this train's slow speed 1/500 sec was more than adequate. I had spotted this oak tree standing alone in the middle of the field and decided it would make the perfect frame for a train on the low embankment.
