Scenes Of The City V

[Coastal Flyer]

Scene V; the San Diego Trolley pulling into America Plaza. Are the lights too much or does it work for the scene?

Great work again CF. The train lights are just a bit bright to me, but the ceiling is great. I love the composition too.

Greg,

Thanks very much again for the comments. I took many shots from this vantage point, some with the trolley, some without, trolley further into the station so the harsh lights would not be a factor, ...... none seemed as "real" as this image. I agree the lights are a bit much but it seemed to capture the feeling better.

Thanks again, I appreciate your time and comments.

I agree with Greg that the lights on the train are a tad bright. Still, it's a great shot. The overhead structure came out very well. If you can return to this spot, I'd like to see the same shot taken without the train coming.

Yakko,

I have that shot. I will post as soon as I can, not sure it will be today but I will. Thanks for the comments.

The image appears a tad dark. I like the detail of the ceiling and I wonder if maybe a little less of the dark forground would help?

I think that the train lights might be ok if the entire scene wasn't so dark. Again this is my amature opinion. The train lights dont bother me as much as the darkness of the image.

Jared,

Too dark overall..., I think you are right. Good call.

I would imagine that may be a side affect of the lights being so bright. (again my inexperience shows...heheh)
