 A simple image standing on top of the tressel that crosses the Hiwassee River.
Convert Raw to JPG, slight saturation, contrast, sharpen, crop, save for web. I had an enhancing filter on the lens which gave it such rich tones.

Beautiful shot. Great perspective on the tracks. Seems a shade on the dark side.

I like the POV and angle of this shot. I would have loved to see an old Steam Engine chugging up the tracks, but nice shot none the less.

Nice shot. I wish it was clear out as I bet the blue sky would even better contrast with the red and green. (and pop out the foliage)

Not enough here to capture my attention. The rails lead me out of the picture.
