Just one pic from the EBT

I was looking through all my EBT photos looking for something specific when I ran across this. In color it’s a nice photo, but converted to black and white it’s really cool. [url=lsc.cvsry.com/EBT15-Bus-BW-1300.jpg]

Nice!

Circa 1930 at the earliest. The gothic-style lettering on the hopper cars gives that away. :wink:

Great photo!

Thanks Kevin. I’ll admit my research ended at the license plate date on the bus. So, the illusion is busted for those who know the details :frowning: So, I might as well share the color version - Lo res version only.

Pretty neat!

You are right, I like the B&W version better.

Me too. It's a stronger image.

Then we all agree :)

The neat thing about this shot is that it was taken before I learned about aperture settings Vs depth-of-field. I was shooting in auto mode, controlling only the ASA rating of the camera. The lighting must have been near perfect to allow the camera to stop down and get sharp focus in both the near and far field. Nice job Fuji :smiley:
