Beautiful motion shot Al,
This was just the shot I had in mind, but your implementation is superior. The colors are very nice.

Thanks much Nick. Great minds must think alike, cause I give my wife credit for suggesting a train shot. The colors on my first shot really sucked - I think they must have washed the train over the weekend.

Nice one Al. It looks like you were laying on the ground to get this great perspective. Good job.
Hi Tom, Thanks for the compliments. Actually, the road bed for the train falls off pretty fast. I wanted to be close to get the wide angle effect, but I figured the 8 to 10 ft I had was as close as I wanted to be. That still put my tripod on a heavily sloped footing and the camera just above the elevation of the rails.
