Heartbeat of Mass Transportation


Joel (my husband) works for BNSF railroad, so this image is dedicated to him and all of the hard work he and others do to keep the railroad moving each day. The railroad is a major artery in the movement of goods throughout the country and without it many things we take for granted each day would come to a slow crawl.
In processing this image, I combined sepia and color to create the dark glowing color to the metal.

More rust


Everyone who knows me knows I love rusty things. The rustier the better. The textures, colors and altered shapes within the rust is beautiful. Here is a piece off of an old railcar that is out in the country sitting in an old field. Abandoned and alone. Well, not any more. I will be visiting that railcar (actually it is an old caboose) many more times.
