Nice shot, Nora.
I like the composition, instead of a plain wedge shot, you got the rest of the train curving around and away into the background.

Did you use your Minolta for this one?

Thanks Ed and Brian (and Joe, Chris and Jim on the other thread)!

Yes, I used the Minolta. That's just about all I ever use any more. [:D]

Fine composition, nicely shot. Rule of thirds followed to a "T".

Nora,

I celebrated my first quarter-century yesterday and my girlfriend used your photo on the card she made for me. Thanks for providing such good material!
