This was captured just West of the Coteau Train yard in Les Coteaux, Quebec. I was out trainspotting when I decided to setup my tripod and capture the scene. In order to balance this image out, I created a layer mask in photoshop and then equalized each RGB channel seperately. The result is a more dynamic looking night time photo with an an unusual color balance and wider tonal range for print. Comments are welcome.

    Nice shot! I like the sense of warmth coming from the ovecast sky in contrast to the cold snow, steel, and dark lines. It reminds me of night time adventures and mischievousness.
