[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hi all,
This was taken last saturday in Peterborough. It was early, cold and rainy, and I tried to bring this through in the photo.

PP went along the lines of contrast boosts, USM, levels, desaturation etc, some in RawShooter and some in PhotoShop. I didn't do any cropping.

I don't seem to be able to find the original raw file so I'll add the exposure info later.

Hope you like it,
Jako

Very interesting shot. I've seen a lot of railway photos in the past and they always seem kind of dull, but you have captured from a great angle and with fantastic detail.
Nice work on the contrasts/levels.

Hi Jaco.
An interesting capture, I like it this perspective.
Black&White good choice, very nice details here; congratulations.
Thanks for sharing, have a great week.

Very good use of the wide angle and an excellent POV. Very nice tonal range as well. Great job!

Excelente la composición, la nitidez en toda la imagen, la sensación de profundidad y el B&W.
Felicitaciones.

Hi Jaco, great b/w, nice angle ! Love how you included the curve. Doesn't it feel great when you don't have to do any cropping ? That doesn't happen to me very often, but I am always so happy when it does, eventhough it only matters to me.

Me encanta la tuya

Hi Jako,
Fantastic shot! Excellent B&W tones in the conversion, perfect DOF and the POV really makes this so 3 dimensional, awesome!
Thanks,
