photos to inspire

Following yesterday’s photoshopped version of a view over the lake, today I thought I would post a similarly painterly view of a GWR Prairie tank 5164 seen arriving at Bewdley Station on the Severn Valley Railway. This was taken with a Sony a350 and processed in Aperture, Photoshop and Topaz Adjust. Once the general processing was done, I worked further on it it using masks and filters in Photoshop to get the effect I was looking for. Another one to hang on the wall I think. This is actually the front of the train where we saw the rear two days ago. More shots of the Severn Valley Railway can be seen on my flickr channel here. DSC09016
