One of the better shots I got of 60103 Flying Scotsman today at Westbury. Dull and overcast certainly didn't help get the best colour in my pictures. More work in post needed.  |

A good picture, given the conditions. You hide your light under a bushel!

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

Further post production done on the picture posted earlier. More punchy colour and removal of people.  |

Some constructive criticism, BNM, but I think I prefer the colours on the original photo, especially the slightly darker green. Plus, for me at least, having people milling about in the background adds atmosphere to the shot, though I can see why the lamppost was taken out!

Merely experimenting with post production. Possibly a little too far with the green, I agree. As for people removal, that was just done to learn the technique.
Oh, and I missed a bit of the lamp-post, sticking out the top of the smoke deflector.

Out of interest what file format did you take the photo in and what did you use to enhance it?

Pentax RAW format .PEF
I have my DSLR set to store RAW+JPG for each shot.
Post production in Adobe Camera Raw for colour correction, exposure, sharpening etc, followed by Adobe Photoshop CS6 where I enhanced the sky, removed people/objects, cropped and tidied up.
Original out of the camera JPG (resized only) attached. I deliberately under exposed when I took the shot as I knew the sky would blow out too much if I exposed for Scotsman's colours.

I'm sure many members of this forum would wish you could do that with packed commuter services as well  |

60103 will be doing the same route tomorrow to and from Salisbury as she did last Saturday. Again with an afternoon trip around Hampshire. Sadly not going anywhere near Bristol due I suppose to all the engineering works there. Surprisingly, timings for the runs to and from Salisbury are already in the public domain. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U59988/2016/05/28/advancedhttp://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U59990/2016/05/28/advancedTimings for Hampshire are also on RTT» . |
