Around the Bend - a photo on Flickriver

Around the Bend

            The headlight of an oncoming freight train illuminates the curve. This photo is from my garden railroad and was captured on my birthday.

I like how it nearly looks black and white despite being a color photo.  That green light is from the marker lights on the front of the locomotive.  All lights are LEDs.

Nikon D850 & Nikkor 24-120mm f/4 @ f/4.  Half-second shot, hand held thanks to VR.
