David Mead General A prize meeting of two trains - you are fortunate in having such colourful locos - even this towards the light shot has provided detail in the shadows - I like wintery shots - the light always seems so clear - I like the rustic colour in the field, it brings in the light contrast before the eye meets the main subject - the trains! 3/2/2007 3:46:07 AM
Max Koehn General awww lucky! you caught a GP15-1!!! 3/2/2007 2:00:25 PM
John Witthaus General The view from the cab was much better.... :) 3/2/2007 5:32:35 PM
Zach Pumphery General David: Thanks a lot, I personally enjoy shots from the spring when everything is blooming back out. Max: Yeah, UP only operates 300 of them. John: I saw it go by at 50 mph from a stop and fully exposed to it, you were going maybe 10 and inside an insulated cab. Is the question here "Who had a better view?", or is it "Who got a better shot?" That you win with that friggen cool light on it. 3/2/2007 5:43:17 PM
Pat Scott General Sh%*house needs to do less phoaming and more learning the job before they throw him off in a cornfield. 3/5/2007 2:52:37 PM
