  Thanx Colleen I appreciate the comments. I used a "slight" motion blur (you can see the snow already flying beside the train) just to add a little more effect to this moving train - Allan

  Thank you all so very much for all of your great comments (Colette, Jeff, Kasia ,Leanne , Murry, Robin, Claudia, Donna T., Stephen, Gary, and also to anyone I might have missed) The Zoo trip was awesome and the subjects were inspiring. Even though the weather wasn't great, the results are such that I'm glad I went. Thank you all again - Allan

  Thanx Donna for the great comment. I got lucky here as we had had about 2" of powder snow the previous night, so the snow flurrying was natural. Thanx again - Allan
