A Green Hue And Way Too Dark |
Description: |
This long eastbound MU train from Grand Central is rounding the long curve at CP 216. This is Shell Interlocking. The train's rear cars are directly beneath I-95. I added some blue tint to the otherwise dull, gray sky. Can you tell? |

This Is The End |
Description: |
Correcting the grain on the side of Power Car #2002 got the best of me! I blurred the details in trying to smooth it out. Maybe it was just too dark of a day to be out there. Guess I'm a die hard! Well, the guys told me to come back on a Wednesday or Thursday morning to see the regular Providence & Worcester freight job pass by on its way to New England. I hope it's a brighter day! |

This should have been a spectacular photo, but I guess a little excited and shook the camera or pressed the shutter too fast and the camera did not focus. Oddly enough, I took this shot with a brand new Canon S2 with a stabilized lens. |
