Typical sights in the teeming metropolis of Grand Forks, a snowy shot of grain elevators and trains.
Both photos are RAW, with some adjustments and then EZ Actions Rustic Charm run on them. Both are with my 18-135 mm lens, ISO 200, wb shady. The first was at 112 mm, f/13, ss: 1/80.
This second shot was at 48 mm, ss: 1/50 and also f/13.
I had first headed to the river today to get a shot of 8 dogsled teams going through Grand Forks. But the dogs were delayed by about 1 1/2 hours, and I just too much of a wimp for the weather :(.

VERY cool shots! I like the way the steam mixes with the clouds. I'm going to have to show these to Yums in the morning. That boy is OBSESSED with trains!!
I love train pictures! Thanks for sharing. Toni
That is a neat shot! I really like train shots.
I reall, really like that second shot-how nice and old/wide it feels. Great job.
Those are very cool shots!

I love these shots! These remind me of the town my grandma lived in when I was growing up. My grandpa was a railroad engineer for Union Pacific.
Had to show these to DH because he loves trains (although he and the boy are bonding watching Braveheart so I interrupted). Very cool shots, and I think the action works perfectly.
Love the clouds of smoke!!
Cool! I really like the mood created by these.
I love that first one! Excellent.
Really cool shots of the train. It looks so cold. I love trains. How cool to see a real dog sled goin by. I am still waiting to see the boiling water freeze thing I am so stuck on that.
Really cool shotsa. They look like they could have been taken yesterday or in 1892
Cool shots, you find the neatest things to photograph!
I see you recommend that LOST book, is it helpful at figuring things out? We're re-watching Thursday's episode for the third time to get more from it! How dorky are we??? Our previous seasons of LOST are the DVD's we watch over and over.
I like that first one a lot.
WOW these are very cool shots. You can really "feel" the cold.
