Description

Out of the night the train comes like a flight from the heavens. Alaska rail lines never looked so good. Original shot taken mid afternoon on a sunny day.
Enjoy the ride.
Thanks

Thanks Bambi, I love them also, it was tough taking a fine train and trying to make it into a new train.

Amazing work, Shahn!
I think this would make a great poster that would sell... There are so many little boys out there who are crazy about trains... and this one is MAGICAL!!!
I could see this adorning many kids' bedroom walls!

Thanks for the comment Steve, this shot was taken mid afternoon in Alaska. It took many hours to make the sun go down on it.
