Thanks all for the comments! The 3rd pic I would have the train closer but the camera flashed one of those lovely error 99 messages. :mad:

Like your emoticons there Karl, haha.

FOAMER!

haha, yes it is dedication but I don't mind the snow. Come on it snows on Cajon too, lol.

Yeah it's back and quite a bit too but not as much as what the U.P. got. It was almost up to 80 the week before but things changed.

Man I love the mirror shot.

I like taking these mirror shots. Surprised it came out as good as it did since it was a dirty window and mirror.

3rd! Try increasing the contrast and see what happens.

Thanks newton, don't mind at all. I actually had edited the pic that way but wasn't sure if I should have posted it or the one I did post. Now I know which one is better.
