Trainboy · 23rd of July 2008 (Wed)

Okay, I finally finished sorting out the 300 or so crappy shots I took, and here's the cream of the crop.
Taken between Radium and Golden:

And taken at Golden:

And, I have one more to post, but image rules eh?

I like 3 & 4 best. Very nice work!

I think everyone here is stunned by them, which is probably why you've had no comments in 12 hours? (You owe me a <bump>!)

I like 4 and 6... nice set though...

Trainboy · 24th of July 2008 (Thu)

Thanks to both of you, and Frank: I'll bump the next dead thread from you that I see

Beautiful series, #4 is just gorgeous.

tsamarin · 24th of July 2008 (Thu)

Great work! Four and seven for me. Love the colors!

You know me from that *other* forum we go to that I love wide angles and commented on the last shot there, but #2 and #4 are the best of the lost. I love the "wide and to the side" view that the second shot gives. Awe-inspiring stuff.

Good to hear I'm pleasing my fans

If you check out RP, I've got a shot on that wasn't shown here.

Just look at that scenery in number three, you make me sick!

Jamie Holladay · 24th of July 2008 (Thu)

Greats shots 2 & 4 for me.

Wow, all great shots. Something in the lower right hand corner of the first picture is throwing me off. It is a blue square of something? But I can't make out what it is.

CPO_USN · 25th of July 2008 (Fri)

the blue area is just normal water it starts where the reflection of the trains stops!

Wow, nice shots, all. Hope I didn't miss anything spectacular in #9.
