BNSF 9685 North At Highland, CO - Super Zoom Shot

Taken at 1200mm with the Panasonic DMC-FZ70. Close to a good half a mile between me and the train, and the trees being even further away. It's warm and the sun is shinning bright. With that, there's a ton of heat turbulence in the air and the lens is really magnifying it. Makes the photo look more like a painting. I found out a long time ago that a long telephoto lens rarely lets you take sharp photos of things miles away. lol

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70
1/800s, f/8.0 at 215.0mm = 1200mm in 35mm format, iso100 full exif
