Train entering the main station in Poprad, on a early january morning.

post-processing:
Crop, desaturate, changed colors to yellows, than with brush selectively grayscaled, some dodge, burn and blur to make the train glow...
That's mostly all

Hi Alex ;)
that is a great photo! I like the way you composed all the lines to get a good graphic. Black&yellow - always a good combination. The only thing mising is a bit stronger impression of movement. But, okay, the train did go slow at the time, so nothing could really be done about that.
really well done!
bio si u Slovackoj?

Nice PP work, Sasa! The selective de-saturation works well here. The combination of the beautiful nature in the background and the industrial foreground is amazing. Great image!

Aleksandar,
nice PP work here,the mountains behind are better defining the title,they help.nice POV ,a semi-industrial shot.
regards

Savrsena geometrija slike i prijatan soft-feel. Crno-beli prikaz planina u pozadini razbija krutocu linija. Dobro vidjeno i jos bolje izvedeno.

A perfect geometry on this shot and a pleasing soft-feeling. The b/w mountains in the background brakes the stifness of lines. Well seen and even better executed.

Beautiful capture, Aleksandar. I like your POV that created a lot of diagonal lines mixed with the vertical lines of the pillar and the mountains. I like the yellow you left on the quay. Well done!

C'est graphique, coloré et bien contrasté …
Du tout beau …
Bravo, Aleksandar !!!

beautiful photo... I like the yellow vs gray. Very well done

MUCH more exciting full size than in the thmnl. So much more detail and that golden effect is a lucky break.
The crop accentuates the movement. The light picks up just enough to provide diagonal interest on the rails, reinforced by the roofline.
Nicely done, with an appropriate enhancement in the frame.

Aleksandar! WHAT A PERFECT SHOT! Framing is outstanding here man, Plus stunning PP word. Congrats!

super foto

Fantastic!

You're becoming one of my favotires.

Tks for the post-processing tip.

Ben.

Ova slika je jako dobra! Zuti vlak u pokretu daje jaku dinamiku. Svidja mi se ta podijeljenost svjetla. Iz tamnog u svjetlo - ili obratno. Imam dojam da virim iz mraka prema osvjetljenim planinama.
Bravo.

Ova poslednja fotografija je uradjena preko filma pa na CD.
Ovde mi se svidjaju planine u pozadini.
