[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A "found" image as I flipped through some old shoots and played with Black and White modes. This was converted to B&W using two channel mixer layers: one with an extreme bias against blue and the other with a bias against green. Removed much of the noise and added local contrast to the tracks and the "destination" area.

Amazing photo! excellent B/W conversion! Well done!

veey powerful b/w shot and an excellent composition with the track off-centre and curving the way it does.

superbly effective, well done!

A wonderful conversion into b&w, i like it very much.

Thanks for sharing your conversion method, i'll surely try it very soon.

I especially like the dark sky againt the white clouds. The tracks path, as stated by Kilted-Arab, off centered gives an good point of view.

Your filename is titled "track-ir", did you used some ir filter ?

Hi Josh,
I like the mood of your picture, composition is well thought and conversion to B&W works really well.
Regards,

Iris

Great textures in this and the PP work has added wonderful softness to the clouds.
Great composition with good diagonals

Wonderful composition and great perspective. The tones of black and white are excellent. Very interesting picture.

Very cool shot and nice note on how you did the filtering. The contrast in the sky is almost creepy and the crispness of the tracks is great. Nice job.

and you made good use of B/W here.
the clouds are fearful of beautiful!
Congratulations
