I went to Heber Utah to visit with the owner of this bad boy. He wants to hire me out to shoot a video for him to use to try and get funding to keep this guy up and running. Pretty amazing machine. Anyway, here is a shot I snapped while checking it out.

What is the EXIF? My first reaction was that if you are going to get in my grille with an image (pun intended), that the background should be more out of focus. Also, you might want to adjust the vertical slider in the Manual Lens Correction in LR because the image appears to be "leaning" back at the top. I'm not sure if you have enough of an edge to pull that off though. Great exposure with the detail of the engine.

Steam trains are a subject that lend themselves well to B&W conversion and so it is here, nice job. Possibly a little tight in the frame, but that may be only a personal thing. Have you tried various tints to see what effect they have when applied ?
