    Re: Perspective on Rails

    I like image #1 and #4 best they seem to me to look more natural and have the best detail. Image #2 is interesting it looks like an old time postcard. #3 & 4 seem too dark over all.

    The light reflection on the rails is the key point for me as I see it. Personally, I would have simply croped out the sky to focus on the rails. (I must say that I am not into merge, adding skies and these kind of edits).

    The sky in the second one looks rather unreal to me due to the colors. The thrid version is more succesful in this regard.

    regards

    cool idea - i would see what you could do about bringing the lost shadow detail in number two back out.

    Interesting series.Why not arrange them from dark to light and present them as a series.
