Horrendous weather this morning (Nothing new) Colour was just a waste of time so a B&W conversion instead.
Tried for an 80's inspired pic as these were common then at Colliery's. A very rare sight now.

That's the effect I was going for. Very foggy & overcast.

Looks like you succeed with the 80s look but this is one case where the rule-of-thirrds would apply for composition. The train (subject) would be better framed to the left and down a bit. The foreground could have been shortened some (above the horiz. cable to the left) to allow more fog/sky to go more with the drab look.

What is "the 80s look"?


1D-III with stuff to stick on it:
70-200L, 28-70L, 24-105L, 300L, 50, 10-17 fish, 2.0x TC
Image editing OK, encouraged, and expected. Thank you for helping me learn!

What the OP said in his 1st post:

"Tried for an 80's inspired pic as these were common then at Colliery's. A very rare sight now."
