[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 145824, member: 12257"] Took a trip to the tracks today. I tried a few "vanishing point" pics lying flat on my belly on the tracks, but none were good as it seems you need to be a bit higher to catch the right vantage point. I'll get back to that idea some day. Until then, a few pics with some editing involved, and one of my boy climbing all over the engine we found. YES, I climbed all over it too... :) You can make a man out of the boy, but you can't take the boy out of the man! 1st, my fave from the day. Edited to black and white, then blurred the edges a bit.

This was the one image of the tracks I liked and kept.
