very nice photo. perfect shadows too.

I take it that's the before shot.

(for those not following today's news ... Miss Deaf Texas was macked by a freight train while she was text messaging her family while stupidly standing on the tracks. I strongly suspect that the death will ultimately be ruled a suicide once someone realizes that deaf people can still FEEL a freight train coming.)

NBN, excellent shot. The false black and white seems less ... I dunno, warm? than film B&W.

Excellent......as usual.
Any fires down your way?:worried:

The B&W looks like moonlight.

theres something about that photo that makes me think "this train ride is soooo boring"

Links to larger versions? I'd like either one as a wallpaper.

Very nice. I particulalrly like the late PM shadows.

What a fun picture to play with, thanks NBN.:D

Great image NBN.

What camera did you use to capture that?

The train was hauling a fleet of cars from Mexico to St. Louis.

I'm not sure if vibrations would transmit through a gravel train bed and be noticable over the shifting of the gravel beneath her feet.

As for the pictures, they are very nice. It reminds me of the stuff I used to see in Life magazine.

wow, I just like the first and second.

Hey, Billy! When do we get some more pictures of cool places in China? And how's the schooling going?

WELCOME BACK!--both of you. I haven't read much of you'se lately. Excellent photograph, NBN. The rendition Bruce did in #12 would make beautiful tile.

Thanks for the compliments, y'all.

Camera is a Nikon Coolpix 8800, slang.

Soon I will post a little photoessay of my trip to West Texas which I hope you will enjoy.

Can't wait.:corn:

Hi Billy, good to hear from you.
