From the bridge

It was a cold day with some rain so the fire was lit. I dragged myself out to look for a photo and found several. This is the railway just a short distance from our home and it looked rather attractive for a railway cutting!
Three good things:
1. Watched a TV program “Wild New Zealand” and it was so good and wonderful photography!
2. Comfy slippers
3. Fresh brown bread and asparagus.

I like how the railway line draws you into the picture

Yes it does look good for a railway cutting ... like the curve in the line.. Wild NZ is a fantastic programe .. really enjoyed last night episode..

@julzmaioro Amazing photography -we said we would never see something like this ordinarily!

[gloria jones]

Great perspective to capture the curved leading line of tracks

[Graeme Stevens]

exellent POV and "toy town" feel to this

[katy]

Nicely captured. It looks like tilt shift. Is it?

[CC Folk]

Yes! This looks like a miniature toy train scene! Fun fav!

[Lou Ann]

This is wonderful! It has that lens baby feel to it. Fav!

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn Well, its a new feature of the updated iPhoto that I have got. Thats called "Photoscape X' and the choice is 'miniature' whatever that means. I quite like the choice of focus that it makes!

[Corinne]

love the effect!

[Jane Pittenger]

Fun miniature feel and great curvy line

[katy]

@maggiemae that sounds very similar

[summerfield]

very nice tilt shift. lovely colours!

[Maggiemae]

@summerfield That was just nature, Vikki - not even planted!

[Harry J Benson]

good scene, the rr pulls one in

[Tony]

Remarkable composition and capture.

[Delwyn Barnett]

Nicely composed. Like the miniature effect.

[Maggiemae]

@dkbarnett I expect 'miniature' means 'a small amount" of focus!

[Babs]

Love the leading lines of the rail line.

[Brennie B]

always love rail lines. this is super

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Dione Giorgio]

Love that bend in the tracks. great shot and focus.

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely focus, it looks like you have used tilt shift!

[bruni]

Great picture. must be nice to ride the train through NZ's beautiful country site.

[bruni]

Btw I like your selfie and the suggestions to use it for your profile picture. it's very becoming and you look great. of course this is my style of hairdo.

[haskar]

Great pov.

[Pat Knowles]

Looks like the broom is out, you might not call it that though...the yellow stuff! Railway tracks are exciting!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Very pretty- I like that white bush that almost looks like a bridal veil.
