A couple weeks ago, I met fellow photographer Jay Monaghan in Cabra to document the passing of Belmond\u2019s luxury tour train that was making it\u2019s scheduled move to Dublin\u2019s Connolly Station.<\/p>\n

Using my FujiFilm X-T1 digital camera, I opted for this portrait-oriented (vertical) telephoto view to accentuate the Dublin Mountains. In contrast to my view, Jay executed a very nice wide-angle photograph that better shows the cutting and the length of Belmond\u2019s train.<\/p>\n
