Just a quicky...

Fresh snow makes it appear solid white. So ya, it looks under exposed. Look at the left on the snowbanks and you can see the texture in the snow. I sent a appeal to tell the screnner. "
The reason I am, the snow is fresh so it appears to be "white" look on the left at the snow bank for snow texture. thanx"

Here is the image

To be honest, it does look about -1.25 stops underexposed to me. It also appears to be slightly out of focus.

From my experience, large, flakey snow like this makes it near impossible to get a wedgie that is acceptable.

Looks like the camera focused in on the foreground snow. Brunswick is right about it being underexposed; I have had the worst time successfully getting a correct exposure in snow like this.

Okay thanx..

I just want to get my 100 photo :lol: hehehe

It shows to be Sunny Friday, and the sun is about 1/6 of the way over the cloud on the weather report so hopefully something then!

Thanks again for the tips.

Here is the train.. A very intresting one for out here. This is the first time I saw a train with about 40 coal loads.

I know what you mean. Now that I am 8 shy of 400, it is (I am sure the screeners are sighing with relief) quality over quantity.

I took to heart, the screener's suggestions, "save this one for your personal collection." And that is really the essence of my site. Even that has changed from uploading everything I have shot to my absolute favorites.

I enjoyed your vehicles on flatcars page. I got some shots of garbage trucks sitting outside Progressive Rail.
