i went out on the only day i had to shoot for this challenge, unfortionatly it was a wet and rainy day. i went to this spot because, well one i love to shoot decay and trains and such things but also because i have had some luck there before.
anyway for this photo i used a trypod and took six different exposures and combinded then together in photomatrix and applyed tone mapping to the image.
i then opened the photo in cs4 for some more work,
levels (a few times)
hue/sat (desat/a few times)
bright/contrast
highbypass filter
dodge/burn
masking,
noise ninja
resize/ save
i really love how this turned out and hope many others feek the same happy holidays!

There have been a handful of images I've pegged as being NikonJeb's, but now that I've found a train, I'm pretty sure I've found him too : ) If not, good mimicry! Great detail and leading lines.
