Steam Silhouette

It might be small, but my old Lumix LX7 is a pretty powerful camera.

As we pulled up to Paradise Lane in Strasburg, the Saturday evening train was just rolling across the crossing.

My Nikons were tucked away, but my trusty Lumix was close at hand.

I made this photo from the driver’s window of our car.

I have my Lumix camera set up to simultaneously expose in JPG and RAW formats. Here’s I’ve adjusted the RAW file for this image to make the most of the evening sky.

Lumix LX7 RAW file, ISO 100, f8, 1/1000th of a second.
