The Glory Days of Steam

This might be the lead-in image to a new gallery – time permitting – to pay homage to the design and beauty of the steam locomotive.

And yes, the extremities of this image a ‘blurred.’ I started with a much curved fish-eye view and worked the heck out of it to straighten it out. The place where they store these engines doesn’t give much room to get an all-in-one image.

Great shot Glenn; working the fisheye out of this has resulted in a picture with an almost surrealistic feel. It really works for this subject. ~V~
