I picked #1, it was close, but I like that I could see some of the side of the engine.

I liked photo number 1 better. It seems to me that it shows up better against its background than photo 2.

Hi all,

There's a great story in the Circuits section of today's New York Times that explains some of the features of digital SLRs, and makes comparisons with point n' shoot digitals.

It's at http://www.nytimes.com/2004/03/25/technology/circuits/25stat.html; you'll probably need to be registered on the nytimes.com website (free) to see it.

Thank you for reading Trains magazine! click here if you dare

Any shot of a CP locomotive is a good shot!

i voted number two. there seems to be a theme going here one shot is always head on the other at the side. (both are awsome!)

I voted for No. 2 because I liked the contrast and photo No. 1 had a tree growing out of it although it wasn't a bad photo. I'd love to see you guys do some shots with slow shutter speeds that show movement. It would be interesting to see what the Canon Digital can do under those circumstances.

I hear a train a-comin.....
