What Turned Out To Be A very Long Train

And experiments in processing. The city's Industrial areas lend themselves very well to different kinds of processing:

nice experiments. Train yards are such good subjects. I especially like the toned-down one in the middle.

+1 on shot 2. Love the processing. Can add a suggestion about comp?

THanks, Wicked D and Marko. But of course you can, Marko. Critique away.

Although if you do this the image's shape is changed to almost square, but ...what's to the left of the pole isn't adding that much to the image - so I might crop to the pole. Just a suggestion - and still a lovely image!

Yeah, you are right about that and I kind of thought that was what you were thinking. I am just wondering if I stepped left more I could still get the blue shed and the pole but lose the tree and near shed. I will have to give it a try. Lots of trains and it's close by so there will be other opportunities for sure. :)

These are really well exposed. The black cars are very black, and there's that touch of white and orange for accent. City backdrop is also lovely. The bright orange cars are interesting and I think the crossing light pole is an interesting highlight as well. Nicely done.

Thanks, Mike!
