I am cleaning up my hard drive from 2014 as part of an ongoing effort to consolidate photos. I spent a big part of the day distracted by photos from a work/play trip to Australia where I really could see the difference 2.5 years has made in my processing skills. I didn't know what to do with this image 3 years ago but today, I immediately knew why I had taken it -- I just didn't know it back then!
Your processing skills may have improved Taffy but from this shot we can see you have always had a great eye for an image! Wonderful leading line! Great image which is perfect for the b&w theme! Fav!
Yes it is very cool. I look at many of my photos from years ago and some I was so proud of I think are horrible and then there are potential gems that I just didn't recognize. This is one of your gems
@cjphoto That was originally what drew me to the shot -- the combination of the people and train and the long empty track. Thanks as always for your visits/comments!
@loweygrace Haha!! I don't remember, but I'm pretty confident I didn't lie down on that -- maybe kneeled or put the camera low and used Live View? Too hard to get up, even a few years ago!
Love the commentary, I'd wager a guess that those observations apply to many of us here on 365. I can certainly put up my hand to the same conclusions. I like the shot anyway, must've been a very quiet piece of line to be able to shoot from that pov. And with your eye you captured a whole story in one shot. Adelaide?
What a great shot. I am not the photographer you are but have kept a lot of my old photos too and hope to play with some, someday as well. Love this in B&W. FAV
