Sun on the train station.

Fog and clouds couldn't stop the sun, but allowed me to take this picture.

This is the no edit version.
Well, I must say that without the edits it's a nice and well composed image, but the edited version is absolutely brilliant...
You did a terrific PP job, and I would be the first to be critical otherwise, because, as you know, I hate vintage-for-the-sake-of-it pictures (and instagram! ).

Thank you again!

It was a long job. Often, when I have in my mind the picture before to take it, it is always an hard work, because when I go to edit it I can't get out of it what I want.
Usually, like this time, I stop to edit it and I let some weeks pass. Then, I go back on that picture, I look at the PP made, I restore it completely and I start again in a slightly different direction.
It could seem stupid, but this way I see with clear mind what exactly I don't like and I try to avoid it. This is the reason for which usually I post pictures from weeks or months ago and almost never
the same day.

I like instagram, I am an user with the same username, but I don't post so often.

Definitely. I took it to make a black and white picture. I don't like very much the color of the clouds when they completely cover the sky...
