Today I visited downtown South Lyon and shot L303-05 eastbound passing through. Then I went to Island Lake state park to shoot G804 westbound grain train cruising around the curve. Today was my first time shooting in RAW file format then editing the photos with Adobe Lightroom. A special thanks to ~Z~, SD80MAC and Jetlink for the great advice in photographing these trains. Although I am just beginning I am relatively happy with how my pictures tuned out. Feel free to provide suggestions of how I can improve. Thanks for looking

I like them too
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

A fine start, Micah. We all were beginners once!
