Union Station in Portland. There is a mild bit of trickery here. I like the crop the way it is, but it included part of the railing of the bridge I was on in the lower left corner. Instead of wrecking the composition, I did some creative cloning and the railing now looks like part of the engine (the diagonal stripe).
PP includes shadow/highlights, duplicate layer on multiply to darken the sky, two channel mixing layers blending with a gradient (red on top to make the sky dark, blue on the bottom to bring the shadow detail out), brightness/contrast, level layer to bring even more of the shadow detail out (masked off for the rest of the pic), USM, cloning, border. |

| I really like the B & W. I think the bridge shadow is an unfortunate distraction. |

| I can see this hanging in an art gallery in New York or Europe. VERY nice photo. The composition is wonderful. The contrast that the use of b/w gives this photo is AWESOME ! |
