Beaunard Grobler, “New Cape Central Railway – NCCR”, Robertson, Western Cape.
Canon 5D Mark II, EF50mm F1.4 USM at 1/100 sec at f/11 & ISO100 with natural light. Attempted to create a Film Noir atmosphere. Edited/ retouched with Lightroom.
Followed the locomotive between Robertson and Nuy in the late afternoon during early spring. Original photo was used by NCCR as a train ticket for their passengers and to promote wine tasting trips on Saturdays.
Need some critique to verify if the monochrome works or not.

Photo was reworked, cropped at the bottom and right and new version uploaded. Looking forward to advanced editing techniques as suggested.

Beaunard, your photograph captures a compelling scene, and you’ve done an excellent job. To enhance the focus on the majestic locomotive, consider cropping a bit of the space at the bottom. This small adjustment could further emphasize its grandeur. If you’re interested, we could explore additional editing techniques like dodging and burning in our next Pro Meeting to bring out more details. Nonetheless, your current composition stands strong, and you should be proud of your work!
