Hi All,

My son is such a huge fan of trains. We went out to a few train shows this holiday. I was trying to get some photos to hang in his room. I actually had a lot of fun trying to shoot all the details. Here are some that I liked.

Feel free to C&C (I understand there are a lot so you don't have to do them all by any means)

Thanks! Happy New Year everyone!

1. Just for fun. I liked his expression...he sure didn't want to leave.

Not bad. #2 has a huge orange spot on his head and #4 looks a little blurry to me. I like the rest of them though. I still have my train sets from when I was younger as they are worth more money now. I have some photos that I took earlier this month of the CP Holiday Train as it passed through Winona, MN. The train had a live band on board and the whole train was decorated with Christmas lights. If you would like to see them just let me know.
 
I really like your first shot ... there is some "air" about it, not sure how to describe it.
 
Photoguy yeah love to see them! Thanks.

The orange on his face in #2, was from a giant rail road crossing near him blinking. I actually liked that about the photo, I should have mentioned that's what the color was from.

Thanks for the likes!
 
I will resize them so I can post them for you. I have roughly 23, how many would you like to see?
 
I like the last best

As many has you want to post. Pick ur favs or post them all. I know my son and I will enjoy looking at them! :)
 
I have 10 good ones ready and about 10 more to come. Here is the first 4. Canadian Pacific Railroad Sponsors This and puts it on every year. Started in 1999 up in Canada and has expanded to some of their routes in the U.S. This was the 13th year it was in Winona, MN. I was in town down there Dec. 9-11, 2011 for a family event and this was on the 10th. Enjoy.
