[QUOTE="Kodiak, post: 169607, member: 15426"] Hello everyone! Boxcars, engins of all types and the stations… pure nostalgia! Trains, a great subject! After all, they were part of the development of our sub-continent. "…everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance…" What could be a cool photographic journey through times, turns sometimes into a nightmarish rapsody of imagery!!! In the same thread, I saw some decent photographs among excellent ones, and, sorry folks, some horrible post-production works that look more like clumsy imagery than photography. Imagery and photography are both art forms. Pulling on sliders is not! Right, salt is good, but the art of cooking will tell you how much is enough! If you just discovered the power of a slider in your toolbox that was unknown to you before, the best thing you have to do is to play with it and mature it. Then revisit you shot and see if it survived the maturing process before even thinking of posting it! I don't pretend to any kind of truth… but sometimes good taste should not be left on the tracks… Respectfully, [/QUOTE]
