More trains

Sorry to once again find myself in a rut, but here's another train picture. This time in color. It's the same train and taken on the same day as the first picture in the previous post. I like the color, but, to me, the subject really lends itself better to black and white. What do you think?

Trains

I'm going to try a different look for the photos today. Let me know what you think.

When I lived in Utah, I had the opportunity to shoot cool old steam trains from time to time. The first is at the Golden Spike National Monument where the transcontinental railroad was first joined in 1869. They haul their steam engines out once every winter because the steam looks so amazing against the cold, winter sky.

The other photo is of one of the steam engines Union Pacific keeps running for special excursions.
