Climbing the mountain

I like how the compressed perspective underlines the steep terrain which the train must conquer. The photo was taken in Grindelwald, Switzerland this Summer while we were waiting for this train to arrive and take us to Kleine Scheidegg.

Hi Ole,
That tells the story very well.....rather be on the train than walking it.
Good shot, much pp?.
Cheers

It does tell the story well. Nice shot too, sharp and well exposed colours. Kinda cool seeing the houses dotted in the background.

excellent shot. The combination of the landscape and the train is really cool.

Thanks. Regarding pp: Cropped, autolevels and added contrast ('brightness/contrast' layer) in photoshop CS3. Smart sharpening amount 100%, radius 0.7.
