Walk along the tracks this afternoon... the original wasn't too inspiring so I messed around with some PS filters. I think it looks a little flat now that it's uploaded, but it'll stay.

2 more, just sharpened with just some cropping differences between the 2.

Beautiful indeed. Love the effects and the way the tracks disappear into the darkness. Voted.

Please forgive my lateness to the party. The thumbnail certainly doesn't do it justice. Great light however achieved and got to love those sweeping curves.
kent larnhill06-Nov-2005 13:57
Amazing shot! Wonderful colours and composition! So well done!
Chris06-Nov-2005 06:18

Spectacular. I tried for a similar image the other day, but couldn't get close to this. Well done.
JW05-Nov-2005 21:38
A gorgeous image that draws you in. The framing is spot-on!
Sheila05-Nov-2005 07:02
It's lovely. Mysterious.
petesie05-Nov-2005 04:57
I missed this one, fantastic, Karen. Makes me want to go around the bend and see what is next.
virginiacoastline05-Nov-2005 03:11

Guest 05-Nov-2005 00:25
Karen...
This is a very pretty photo...i love fall but around here the leaves are not that pretty yet...but i really like this photo...voted
Cliff04-Nov-2005 22:09
Do I ever like this Karen.
Just awesome !
Chris Sofopoulos04-Nov-2005 18:14
Love it!!! Great angle and crop. Bravo Karen.

Karen Stuebing04-Nov-2005 17:11
I love what you did with it. The colors are so soft but bright. I like the darkness of it and the train track curving into the woods just makes it.
Guest 04-Nov-2005 13:30
That shot is AWESOME. Great job.
Joseph Brennskag04-Nov-2005 13:24
Beautiful Karen! Perfect composition and I love the 'softness'.
Neal Nye04-Nov-2005 13:19
Whatever you did to it was just the right thing. I love that tunnel formed by the trees and the low angle of view down by the tracks. I'm sure this is better than actually seeing it in real life.
Bill Ewart Jr04-Nov-2005 13:02
It's right out of a calendar!!! Love the tracks!
Mike Moats04-Nov-2005 12:08
Very nice comp and colors Karen.
laine8204-Nov-2005 11:17
Oh no, if it's flat ( can't see it myself ) it's perfect flat. Words are not enought so here, take my vote.
Beverly Wickersham04-Nov-2005 11:17
Great fall colors. The curve of the tracks into the distance is perfect. Nice job. Gets my vote.
don nieman04-Nov-2005 10:28
I agree with the crowd. This is a favorite. The well defined curving tracks lead us into the soft colors. Really nice.
Guest 04-Nov-2005 10:18
One of my favorites Karen. It looks surreal...Great work! V
Larry Ahern04-Nov-2005 10:07
Nothing wrong with this at all. Terrific shot
Guest 04-Nov-2005 10:02

Excellent work, a wonderful autuum mood.
Shmuel Halevi04-Nov-2005 07:43
Good one!
Steven Jusczyk04-Nov-2005 07:10
It's such a perfect composition, with the tracks disappearing in the tunnel of leaves. A little brighter, perhaps? Either way, it's a beauty.
Guest 04-Nov-2005 06:42
only a little flat. :)
the perspective of the rails saved it. :)
Guest 04-Nov-2005 06:13
Beautiful!
Coleen Perilloux Landry04-Nov-2005 05:56
I love this.
Guest 04-Nov-2005 05:19
Karen, I think this is much better like it is. I like the more subdued tones. It gives it the classic look of a old painting. The light and comp. are just perfect, wouldn't change a thing.
Bryan Murahashi04-Nov-2005 05:08
Really nice shot. I want to follow these tracks to all the fall colors.
Roe..04-Nov-2005 05:05
omgosh I love it..wow...v
Dennis Hoyne04-Nov-2005 05:03
Wonderful shot, it looks as thought the tracks lead into a tunnel.
Dave Wyman04-Nov-2005 05:03
Very nice, Karen.
Ann Chaikin04-Nov-2005 04:55

Mindy McNaugher04-Nov-2005 04:53
I think it's stunning Karen! Wonderful fall colors! The tracks leading the eye into the darkness beneath all the trees! Beautifully moody! Vote!
Ray :)04-Nov-2005 04:42
Don't be too hard on yourself, Karen. This is just wonderful. Where does it go?

Guest 04-Nov-2005 02:50
I've heard of the light at the end of the tunnel but this is the dark at the end : )
I love this shot Karen! GMV!
snootydog04-Nov-2005 02:50
No, not flat at all.... in fact, this is the way a fall photo SHOULD look. Its really beautiful and rich
Robin Reid04-Nov-2005 02:50
