(Main) contests->b/w challenge
LE was needing something for the B/W challenge tomorrow, so thought I would go Loco and send this one down the rails. The photos are courtesy of yours truly, so I would like to thank myself. The locomotive photo was taken in Marceline, Missouri (the childhood home of Walt Disney) and the railroad bridge is crossing the Missouri River in Glasgow, Missouri.
I think Old Number 2546 had a love affair with the bridge and would burn hot while crossing the river. I thought they should be reunited and allowed to make music once again.

A great B/W close-up from a good angle Tick. I like your "loco" comments too. Only you can come out things like "loco's love affair" !!

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.
It really brings memories back. I love traveling by train. Well done, Tick. Good work for the Challenge.

Suits B & W to perfection Tick and is a fine addition to the Challenge. A seamless manip which really works
I have been loco for some time now so feel quite an affinity for this bold beast.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Tick - Walt Disney would be proud. Terrific image. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
This makes me think of Thomas the Train,. My granddaughter watches that show all the time. I love this angle, and the darkness of the shot. It has an intimidating look to it. Excellent black and white, Tick.

Owd Fella Tick (OFT) aka SOT,
In the first place I like you to know that, to me, your new avie is wonderful.
In the second place think that you have to know, to prevent misunderstanding with or a wrong interpretation of the COC, that it would have been been better that you had provided us with the URL-information, although you have (hopefully a written) permission of yourself.
Last but not least: thanks for this wonderful and impressive image. It's an excellent entry for the challenge. Therefore it was S+F by me. Thanks my friend.
Regards, SEA.

Try to change what you can't accept, but accept what you can't change. Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.
This is one outstanding looking capture and so powerful looking too and the background so dramatic especially the sky and the bridge adds a lovely feel to this photo plus stunning detail too.Plus I believe scenes like this one always look great in B&W you get a feel if the era of them times .Well done to a excellent looking photo and thanks for sharing.

Sometimes, one thinks he needs to know who built the bridge, who designed the train, or who created the sky, in order to protect us as we view. But, ultimately, it is this fresh version of the ingredients mixed together that we appreciate.

Very dramatic image Tick. I love these trains you have in your neck of the woods. The bridge in back is a wonderful touch to this photograph.
