Outbound.
(Your Best Shot 2020).
Heading north-west out of Stockholms Centralstation which is Sweden's largest and busiest train station. Over the years I have taken many overhead shots of trains and arriving and departing at the station but could never find a location where I could get a good "eye level" view of the scene. I knew about this particular spot but I couldn't access it due to construction work which was ongoing for over one year but, back in June I noticed that the construction work was almost complete so I waited until the end of July and revisited the the location. I was amazed at the the scene as I stood on the tips of my toes leaning over the fence whilst using the top half of my under arms to hook onto it. I then visually composed the shot. I next adjusted my settings and had to wait for an outbound train to appear. I took a few shots in continuous mode but I knew that this particular photo wouldn't work if I didn't get my timing right. I was happy with my effort as my arms were tired from hooking on to the fence and there was no way I would have the strength to do it again.
I processed the photo through Photoshop, just fixing the the exposure, detail and sharpness before I used the SilverEFEX Pro add-on to convert it to Black & White where I manually worked (from scratch) on the photo (without using any of the provided presets) ... I then opened it again in Photoshop and painted in the light and shadows using the "curves" layer. I must say that it was a great journey for me and I hope you enjoy viewing the image.

After a week in MRL land we needed to head west towards Spokane. What better way to do that then a westbound chase of the afternoon Gas Local. We would follow all the way to Thompson Falls before saying our goodbyes to the MRL. Seen here crossing Marent Gulch on a fabulously sunny afternoon. It would be a great westbound chase.

Two jet-skis captured going outbound at Cuckmere Haven...I liked the trails from the jet skis as they raced towards Seaford and thought they added some interest, balance and contrast to the scene...

Reading & Northern’s Scranton Branch job heads east as the sun rises. One of the unique features of Reading & Northern is the teamwork made between crews to simplify work. On this morning, the YJPI-1 crew had no outbound for NS, and instead of running on their own they rode the rear of PISB.

Newly-rebuilt, Metra F40PH 177, 'Prairie View' leads an outbound Rock Island District train past 16th Street Tower after a snowstorm dumped several additional inches across Chicago, resulting in almost two-foot totals in spots.
Had to wait a long time of the mist to clear and just as it did the fishermen were launching so timing was perfect.
