Comments by Art Sands on Sun, 03/21/10 21:12 Nikon Cool Pix P90 North Denver, Friday Comments by Mike Hites on Sun, 03/21/10 21:40 Dang that's cold looking. Really like that splash of color of the engine. Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Sun, 03/21/10 21:58 Nothing works like snow with trains I think and here is a great example with the colors of the engine popping in the picture... a real 3D feel with the train coming right down the tracks towards the viewer. Boy it looks like you stepped right back into winter on Friday rather than forward into spring. Comments by Art Sands on Sun, 03/21/10 22:19 Thanks guys Tried this in grayscale and it didn't work well - the bit of color in the engine really adds to the image (yeah it was cold) - the day after was clear and warm - have some shots to post Comments by Sandi MacDonald on Mon, 03/22/10 11:02 Yes, that a quite a nice picture...fresh white spring snow and the engine works for me...viewpoint is good too. Comments by Jeff Dye on Mon, 03/22/10 12:24 Well done. IMO the engine's lights make the photo. It would be a dead scene if they were off. Goes to show that work goes on even in the worst weather. Comments by Maria Salvador on Mon, 03/22/10 16:27 Agree with Jeff, the engine's lights make it for me too, but I also like all those convergent lines and the soft background mist. Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Mon, 03/22/10 19:22 So much to like here - I like how you lined the edge of the building with the post, to make them as one, and not intrusive. Dark items on the edges hold the eye in the frame of all that misty background. The lights and yellow demand the viewer's attention. Comments by Linda Frey on Mon, 03/22/10 19:24 I like it too. Just let all those comments above speak for me. Comments by Kathryn03 on Mon, 03/22/10 19:40 I like this photo, I love train photos. I think if you were able to step back a bit, and get the entire switch, that would add a lot of me, personally. I like to see how the train is lined. Since you got the frog, I don't think you would have to move back that far to get the switch points. Great photo. Comments by Art Sands on Mon, 03/22/10 21:31 thanks everyone - I was a little nervous shooting in this area - had a security guy pull up behind me just as I was leaving one area Kathryn if I had moved back to the switch point would have been run over by the train to the left :-) It was moving. Comments by Art Sands on Mon, 03/22/10 21:39 This was the area I was leaving when the security showed up: Comments by BaRass on Tue, 03/23/10 15:45 Beautiful shot, can't same more than ppl above. :) but the last one, looks like toke for a movie, great. Comments by Art Sands on Tue, 03/23/10 21:38 BaRass - was that a toke or a take (don't mind if I do) Comments by BaRass on Sat, 03/27/10 16:07 Sorry, I meant "took"... English is my second language... Again, great shot :)
