Some recent railroad pics from New York State...

(Pentax K-3 with DA 18-135 WR)



Amtrak Empire Service Train from Niagara Falls to New York City in Rome, New York on 9/6/2015.






Amtrak Train #48 The Lake Shore Limited from Chicago to New York and Boston at Verona, New York on 9/6/2015.

Like No 1 and No 3 particularly. I reckon they would both really benefit from a light crop to tighten the composition. Nice sunny day has given you nice colours and pop.

Thanks for looking!


RailPictures.net did in fact accept the first photo! I had wondered if I should have cloned out the shadow of the pole in the right foreground. I did remove overhead wires in the background. This state is FULL OF WIRES!!!


The third photo was rejected for being too blurry.


Crop tighter, you think?


Thank you for taking a moment to look at my photos!

Neat looking old RR station. Good pics - enjoy seeing 'em.

Thank you for taking a moment to let me know! Cheers!

Great train shots. I wish mine would come out like yours. I still have sooooo much to learn.
