Awaiting Passengers
Went back to my favorite train depot to see what new trains were there to shoot. This old passanger car looked like it was waiting for passengers to take a ride. Still had old advertising posters hanging on the front and back walls.

Shuch sharp focus all the way back. I’m suprised it was shot at F8. Perfect perspective Eric.
ericseyes replied
Thanks and with the standard 18-55 lens, which I normally don’t have much luck with.

Great work Eric – very well presented
ericseyes replied
Thanks Bev, I was thrilled to stumble on to it as most of the cars are locked so you can’t get in them.
