About the Image(s)
I had the opportunity to attend a CN event which included a night shoot with CN 2141, both the old steam engine and the newer diesel engine.
I chose to process the photo in both B&W and colour to show the different eras

A nice image between the Old and New. I would like to see more of the sides showing. I ran your image through Topaz DeNoise AI and Topaz Brightness and Contrast AI and came up with this. You can now see a little more of the sides, which also gives you a little more depth to the image, and doesn't take anything away from the image darkened. I like what you did with the picture.

What a great idea, of using both color and b&w. I like Stuart's changes. Posted: 03/09/2023 12:06:18

Well done. It is very dramatic. The red engine just pops. Posted: 03/09/2023 13:42:27
Thanks Deborah, it was wonderful to see the different generation of engines beside each other Posted: 03/09/2023 14:17:25
Deb, I,too, like the idea of combining the old in B&W and the newer one in color. I think it adds to the interest of the image. Great idea from Stu to bring up of the sides of the engines. Posted: 03/13/2023 13:47:44

A great idea to put the old steam engine next to the new one. The BW and color really emphasizes the old vs the new. I also like the enhancement made by Stuart. Posted: 03/20/2023 18:05:32
