A Better Version?
I'll share one more from my recent trip to "The North Country" for now.
Some of you may have already seen this photo via railpictures.net or Facebook, however this version is slightly different. In typical railpictures.net fashion, they kept rejecting this photo for being "too dark" before I finally brightened it to their liking. In doing so, however, I lost some of the nice sky you see here. This shot was indeed taken using a graduated ND filter, too, so go figure!
I'd be curious which you like better, but this Flickr version is my favorite and best represents the scene as I saw it that morning. Here's a link to the railpictures.net version: www.railpictures.net/photo/758629/
Regarding the photo, the sun has not quite come up yet on this very cold, December morning as VTR GP18 #801 stands ready to bring today's New York & Ogdensburg train down to the CSX interchange in Norwood.
