    great antique look, suits the subject. Looks like it actually is old disused railroad.

    Thanks so much everyone. I took this out the (edit:open) car window on the way home. I didn’t like the sooc look at all so i cropped it rather unusually and used Nik Silver Efex Pro to give me this look. Took a bit of sliding on the sliders and a couple of local adjustments but I liked how it turned out for the most part, especially compared to the original.

    I actually think it might not be used anymore. I have been crossing this track for 3 or 4 years now every day and I see no evidence than any train cars have moved. Though there are a bunch parked just down the track on the other side side of the road. They have been there as long as I can remember.

    How do you like the Nik software? I had a trial of it before and only had it for 15 days so really never got to really play with it and just today I looked it up online and was not thrilled over the price…so I just don’t know right now!

    Now this is just awesome! When I clicked on to your photostream this has instant impact. I looked back at your Photo a Day submissions from the begining of the year which were great but this picture is a significant development. Great work!

    The colour treatment is perfect for this image and I love how the tracks arc across the frame.
