    Great subject matter and placement of the train car in the frame...but the shot is so small its hard to judge the effect that you applied to it. Do you happen to have a link to a slightly larger version?

    Thanks.

    One of the things I didn't like so much about LR is the vignetting is applied over the whole image, so even if you crop a portion out the effect is not guaranteed to be on the edges of your finished shot. I see that the darkness in the bottom right corner is significantly more pronounced than in the top left, or bottom left. For my curiosity was this a cropped image? ear.gif

    I like the PP quite a bit, regardless!

    Thanks for posting the larger version - I like this shot and the effect that you have applied to it. Good composition as I mentioned with leaving the train car "somewhere to go" in the frame......makes it a much better photo.

    p.s. Love the name of the street car as well! :D

    Schmoo, I agree with you on the vignetting. I don't know if I cropped this before or after the effect was applied (sorry about the memory thing, have had the worse case of the flu this week) Maybe I will experiment with the difference of adding the effect after the crop and see if there is a difference.

    Bauerman,
    Thanks for the comments. It was actually the name of the street car that prompted me to take the picture and since it was moving, guess I got lucky!
