As it were

Much better, but I wouldn't mind a little more contrast, or an atmospheric mono

Re: another attempt

Actually,I preferred the other one.Much more moody/atmospheric.This reminds me of the shots I took on the North York Moors Steam Railway which are ok for what they are.See here for an example but your Mono was a lot more interesting for me:

Re: another attempt

Yes this one is much better I like the composition + detail. Colours + tones seem rather flat though I think that with a contrast + colour boost, then this would 'pop' quite nicely.

Re: another attempt

charlotte i deliberately desaturated the colours to give it a olde worlde feel to it as there was nothing else modern in the shot.

Re: another attempt

Hmmm would an overall sepia tone work better in that regard? TBH this doesn't really look olde worlde to me, it just looks desaturated

Re: another attempt

I like this, you get a sense of motion and the exposure and detail on train is very good IMO.
My favorite part is the smoke .
