I like all the macro stuff but this one has that something extra. More thought provoking to me. Maybe its just the result of all those Buddhist impermanence teachings I attended.Spent ...

Tom,Excellent images here.
One question: my feeling is that the k5IIs has somewhat different color than the original K5 (at least in LR). I have the impression the original K5 color was somewhat smoother and less punchy than the K5IIs?
I have not shot the K5iis that much yet, but sometimes the color seem a little bit too much (oversaturated)?
Thanks, Rich... somethings just look better in B&W and every old locomotive I have ever shot seems more appealing to me as a B&W.Beautiful Jim.....the B+W is exemplary.
Magnificent steam locomotive and good research on your part, Jim :clap:The two shots below are of the Union Pacific "Big Boy". At 1.2 million pounds, the Big Boy is the largest steam locomotive ever built. Only eight such locomotives still exist, and rarely do they travel on the tracks. This one is on its way to a new home in Frisco, Texas from Dallas where it has been sitting for the last 40 years or so. You can read about the new home of this locomotive here.
I decided to do two shots, one in color and one in B&W.
Shot with the K5 IIs and DA* 16-50mm.
