That was good. Did you have a remote microphone or just use the ones in the camera?

I have a very short shotgun mic that sits on the flash mount and plugs directly into the camera.

Have not decided if I like this one yet

You should. I like it a lot.

You should. I like it a lot.

I have a few more days while the sun is in the correct place to try again. I think I needed to shoot in in portrait mode.

 

[Danno_RIP]

I like this one... but I am looking forward to seeing the portrait with wide angle. Hard pressed to imagine which will be better.

 

[Ironwood]

I like it too, love how the tracks have lit up with the golden glow from the sun.

I like the subject matter and the composition. The overdone sky is not my thing, but that's just a matter of taste. The rails look unnatural with all that orange glow . If it was really lit up by the sunset you would have more of it around the tracks and not just on the rails itself.

The sky is cooked a bit but actually the rails really were that color. The reflection really was there.

Then I apologize. range: You know I didn't mean anything by it.

For the most part I agree with your critique.

Two from my Railroad Park shoot last night

 

[Don Kuykendall_RIP]

Okay, I had another pretty nice sunset to try again with my railroad shot. I think I do like this one

Since it's just a question of taste and we're just discussing our individual taste, I'll say that I prefer the general color of the first one Don. Maybe if you cropped the first one square... And to my eye, this version doesn't seem leveled.
