The Perfect Train Picture CurveYou are at: CarrTracks >Gallery A perfect curve is where you can get some elevation above the train tracks. The track has a nice curve and the sun is at your back for good lighting. With the sun at this angle both sides of the train will be in sunshine as the train sweeps around the curve. The sun illuminates the side closest to you on the outside of the curve and further back, it illuminates the side on the inside of the curve. Here are some examples where sun, curve, train, and photographer all came together at the same time. Also included are a couple of shots where things didn't quite work out perfectly, but the pictures still turned out OK. |
