Description

exactly the same version i had in the other gallery. if you look closely (this 1024 version does it no justice) at the second car, right above and to the left a tad of the open door you can see a face. must have been one of the passengers waiting to get off. i thought that was cool as hell, especailly since this entire shot was an accident. all i wanted was the light trails zooming through the station but, much to my dismay...it stopped. i didn't realize what i had till i got it home and offloaded to the pc. to say i was more then pleasantly surprised would be an understatment!!! thank you for looking and your kind words on my previous posts!!! i hope you enjoyed!!!

Ahhh, one of my favorites from you...mistake or not this one is killer...some of my best stuff was by accident, maybe thats the secret. Excellent capture here, I love the motion in this one! Great job! Aloha!

Dude! This is just brilliant! I like how you have everything just right in the still part- but have capured that movement of the train going through (gives a great illusion of speed). I bow to you oh Yoda of nighttime B&W images!!!

This is definately one of your best images, everything is just right! I love the pov - looking down the steps - adds real depth. Superb shot, well done! :))

I think i saw it before too. An excellent one indeed. Love the light as always especially.

I think that the fact that the train stopped was a big bonus, you have got the light trails giving an illusion of speed yet still retain some of the markings on the carriages. Lovely viewpoint. Excellent!!

Absolutly superb capture! Your nightime imagery is exquisite - the clarity, light, and detail (and in this case motion) is magnificent! V

Awesome capture here. As much as I love trains and photography, I"ve never attempted to capture a shot like this. You've inspired me to give it a shot. Great work.
