I've been playing around in Photoshop...[IMG]http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee261/TrainManTy/IMG_6795.jpg[/IMG] During a torrential rainstorm, WRS train CDWJ (Concord, NH to White River Junction, VT) screams in Run 8 up Mascoma Lake Grade. 2.0 seconds at F/29, ISO 800. Lighting was created by turning all the tracks lights away from the scene and intentionally underexposing the photo. The sky, mist, and rain were added in Adobe Photoshop 6.0. The rain was created by creating a new layer, filling it with black, then going under Filter --> Noise --> Add Noise. Then I used Filter --> Blur --> Motion Blur to blur the noise, creating rain on a black backdrop. Then I reduced the opacity of the black-and-rain layer until it looked good. The light from the locomotive's headlights refracting off the raindrops was added using the Dodge tool.
