Great shot. I visited Carnforth and Crewe recently and got some lovely shots there. I love steam engines, they are such interesting subjects and I am lucky enough to come into contact with them a lot through my job.
The graphic approach is very different with much of the engine blacked out. I like what is there very much. Personally, I think it needs just a liitle more base to stand on. Just a hint of wheels or something. However, I recognize I am severely outnumbered by all those favs! Congrats!
Works for me - not sure I would have thought much about the white blobs if you hadn't have mentioned them. But as you did; yes, I would have have got rid of them - but that's just me.
Fabulous Sean!! I love it! FAV!!! :) I love the steam and if you want to just crop it up a bit from the bottom then you wouldnt have to do all that work cloning! Either Way it is a Wonderful Capture!! FAV+
Oh WOW! Amazing shot Sean. I know the right pre-set in Silver FX helps, but this is brilliant anyway and not just because I probably 'spotted' this one in the sidings in the Meadows, Nottingham, when I was 13 years old! Truly wonderful! You could sell this shot if you wanted to compromise your art! Fav!
@yrhenwr I wouldn't know where to start selling my work David. I would happily email a hi res copy of this to you for free though. A thank you for your friendship and support.
I kind of like the specs. Too dark without.
Fixed ;)
