Spot this traction engine as I was driving past, couldnt miss it realy. I had to park the car run back and take the shot, unfortunateley I only had my 50-200 with me and stuggled to compose the shot. I wish I could have taken the shot with out the humans it would have given the picture a bit more of a vintage feel. I processed the picture using Dynamic photo HDR with a touch of orton, please let me know if I have over done it as I am looking for a bit of guidance on the HDR front all comments welcomed.

I do honestly love the effect but must agree about the people. They should have the decency to stay away while seeing some artist take a shot !!!!
Nevertheless 10/10 in VB tonight !

Oh I love this shot! I too agree that it would be better without the people, and I think it is a bit overdone with the HDR and orton, but, that's ok, I love it anyway!

Excellent. I love this HDR, and the slight Orton. I am a big fan of the Orton Effect, and it was perfectly used in this shot. (I also like the blond, too. LOL.)

Bri, I think you did a great job! How did you get that softness in it? That is what makes it look exceptional for me! Thank you for posting this! I know what you mean about humans in a photo! I'm the same way! Allen

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
