Yes, I love my old glass! I use them even more than my new glass

It would be a great teaching moment if you could describe how you set this up and what post processing you used..
Sure, no problem. Acutally, it was already pretty dark (it was about 9 o'clock pm), i had my tripod set and focused via Liveview (there were other photographers too, cursing on their autofocus
).
First I tried to go with my M 50 1.4, but in my opinion the picture got to narrow, I wanted to have the bridge as a huge glowing leading line to the cathedral. So i took the K 28 3.5, set it to F8 (everything is in focus, and because I had my tripod with me, long exposures wouldn't be a problem) and just waited for a train to pass by.
Post Processing? Actually, there isn't much I did. Time and location are doing the most part here. I can attach the unprocessed picture
What I did, is working on contrast and sharpening after downscaling.
