Cutting room floor

All photos that didn't make the contest. What ever the contest topic. Place your photos that you chose to not use or maybe you were just a few hours late from getting in to the contest.

Here is mine.


Headlight contest
This was taken in the mirror of my motorcycle like the contest entry, except my arm had to be cut out of the view and I just didn't like how the cutting turned out.

 

From the More Than One contest

Thanks camp and r-i I was looking at the 24hours of railimages when I seen so many head light photos I thought we needed a place to showcase the ones we didn't pick to enter in the contest.
Any one else want to join in the photo showcase

Headlight Contest

Took this one tonight of my N scale Mikado


(Photoshop added steam and cab lights for me)

 

Sure is a nice picture.

 

Nice shots there Ben sorry you missed out on the contest

 

Thanks Mr. Train! I shot those on the way back home and was not sure if they were worthy of competing in the contest.

I was looking for different shots of headlights. I decided to take some pics of a headlight assembly on this particular locomotive. I took several shots of the headlight cluster and just kept moving in closer. I noticed the "GE" logo on the headlight and then a "lightbulb" lit up! I tried several to try and get both the logo and the element of the headlight bulb in focus. But alas, all I have is a "point and shoot" camera. This photo has good focus on the logo, but the element and related parts were not in as good of focus as my entry pic in the contest.

I had a hard time deciding which shot to enter in the contest. The others were rejected, but they all had merits of their own.

 

HA somebody has to be last. I have been known to get "no" votes or tie for last place. For me it's the fun of getting a photo and joining in on the contest.

 

Name the contest

Oldrk,
What contest should that photo have been in?
Great photo any way.

 

I believe it was the 4-axles one. If I recall, that's NKP 765

 

what not in

It was not in any contest.:tb-biggrin:But , specifically "4 axle". I had a different picture that actually easnt as good. And yes that is NKP 765 that I had the honor of being behind the throttle and running her up and down the tracks a few times.
