Outbound.

(Your Best Shot 2020).

Heading north-west out of Stockholms Centralstation which is Sweden's largest and busiest train station. Over the years I have taken many overhead shots of trains and arriving and departing at the station but could never find a location where I could get a good "eye level" view of the scene. I knew about this particular spot but I couldn't access it due to construction work which was ongoing for over one year but, back in June I noticed that the construction work was almost complete so I waited until the end of July and revisited the the location. I was amazed at the the scene as I stood on the tips of my toes leaning over the fence whilst using the top half of my under arms to hook onto it. I then visually composed the shot. I next adjusted my settings and had to wait for an outbound train to appear. I took a few shots in continuous mode but I knew that this particular photo wouldn't work if I didn't get my timing right. I was happy with my effort as my arms were tired from hooking on to the fence and there was no way I would have the strength to do it again.

I processed the photo through Photoshop, just fixing the the exposure, detail and sharpness before I used the SilverEFEX Pro add-on to convert it to Black & White where I manually worked (from scratch) on the photo (without using any of the provided presets) ... I then opened it again in Photoshop and painted in the light and shadows using the "curves" layer. I must say that it was a great journey for me and I hope you enjoy viewing the image.

Regards
Brian
