The Good Side of A.I.
I'm sure anyone who's seen my page before has seen this shot. It's no doubt a favorite of mine. The classic KCS Belle Business train leaving Baton Rouge, LA, with mere minutes of any light to spare was a high water mark for my photography on the KCS. I was never really happy with how grainy the shot was overall, and attempts to print the image any larger than an 8X12 went poorly. Fast forward a year or so, and this new "A.I." noise reduction hits the scene through Adobe's Camera Raw. This photo was one of the first I thought about re-working to see if I could get some serious improvement in Image quality. I forgot about if for a month or two, but today I ran it through clean from the beginning, and came up with this. I'm pretty stoked with the results of the new noise reduction. Compared to my post many months ago there is approximately 2-3 stops less noise than before. I'll leave this image alone for awhile now, and archive other postings of it. It's finally at the place I'd like it to be after shooting it well over a year ago.
Thanks for looking (again) and enjoy!
