A great steam shot here Peter. Love the deep steam and smoke here. I was once here in Wernigerode too but just with my simple film camera in a wet summer. I have in fact a very old pack of large playing cards that has on the back of each, sepia photos of the Harz from the 30s+. There are a few like this taken with very deep snow in Wernigerode. - Great work - I am envious of your trip here in winter. ⭐

Cheers. Herb

Hi Herb,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I am pleased you found it interesting, and nostalgic for your trip.
It might be said that this is one of the classic shots of the line, as it is such an easy place to get to. Of course when we planned the trip we had no guarantees of the weather. This morning was cold, but not much snow. The next day was clear blue sky, and deeper snow in the mountains.
I suppose the key is to time it so give enough vapour around the locomotive without obscuring it..
Best Wishes, a good week ahead, and keep safe!!

I hope you jumped clear before the loco got too close Peter!
I'm jealous of your winter visit to the Harz. I have been a few times but only in summer/spring so no snow. It's a great trip whatever the weather but snow on the mountains makes it magical.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
