Tracks

Uploaded: May 17, 2003

Description

Taken in late afternoon with Canon Powershot G2, aperature priority set to f/8. With the digital camera I was able to position the camera low enough to get a different perspective of the railroad tracks. After I took this shot, a train came through at about 75 mph.

Pat,

Great use of DOF here, I like the tracks going off into the distance. the Buildings distract a bit on the left but probably unavoidable. #39847

Thank you, Chris. I agree about the buildings, but there was nothing I could do with the use of a wide angle setting. I also think that the buildings and trees in the far distance help to give depth to the shot. #116590
