What kind of a lens where us using on this? Any "Photoshop" changes or is this the jpg straight out of the camera! Nice Shot by the way!!!!!!!
All shot in Raw format ( I only shoot raw) and lots of Photoshop because it was very smokey and the sun was coming from the wrong direction. Would have been much better if it was a morning shot without the smoke. If you check out my other album, you will see the Loop was early morning and after a winter storm which cleared the skies beautifully.
Oh, I forgot, I was using a Sigma 10-20mm zoom lens set at 10mm which is equivalent to a 15mm on a full frame 35mm. I shoot only digital now, when I was shooting film, I had a Sigma 17-35mm lens and it would not cover the entire loop at 17mm.
Willyboy, I interviewed the Train Master of this train in Anaheim last week, and he expressed a desire to have a picture exactly like yours for his use (to boast with his fellow train master from the Red Unit of the circus train.) I put out a call for such a photo on trainweb.com, but have had no responses. How can I give the Train Master, Keith Anderson, of the Blue Unit of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus a copy of this photo? If you want to respond personally to me, use this: Carl@TrainWeb.com Thanks for the great shot! I found it by googling, then joined trainboard to connect with you.
