Welcome to the forum. I too have been photographing the graffiti on rail cars. Some of the people doing this type of art are very talented. I have thousands of pictures and it is neat to watch as the artists begin with an outline and fill it in until it is a finished work of art. Have also thought of doing something with all the picture, maybe a book. Have access to a publishing company owned by a friends son, small company but he does good work.

Greetings. I'm new to the world of DLSR's...I've been using a point and shoot Nikon for years (back when a 4mp camera was popular. The camera I was using, had many lenses available so I bought and used them all. Also available was an underwater housing. I started doing shallow diving (rivers and ponds). Now...I've retired from diving, and would love to learn DLSRs and post processing. My interest is B&W of old buildings, train trestles and actual trains. I also believe there is a "nitch" in photographing the graffiti on rail cars, having the pictures printed up as tiny decals and sold to model railroader's to add realism to their rolling stock. I have a nice Canon T2i with 5 lenses. the 2 kit lenses, (18-55, 70-300). I've added the 50mm, 100mm macro and a 12mm-28mm wide angle. Any help or suggestions on PP software for a simpleton like myself would be great! I'm so glad to meet everyone here. respectfully trainspotter.

I remember when I visited Eugene. I went there expressly to photograph the hump engine, 3101 AKA 6013. Could only grab this since I was on a business trip and could not dwell long there.
Here is an image of 3101. (sorry about thedust on the image. Scanned it before cleaning, i'mbad!
