In recent weeks, Conway Scenic’s work train crew have made great use of the railroad’s century-old wooden bodied caboose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although it is Spring, a chill has remained in the air in New Hampshire’s Mount Washington Valley. So, several days ago the crew improved the car’s coal stove in the car and put it to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using my Nikon Z7-II (with 24-70mm Nikkor lens), I made these photos at North Conway of the caboose and its classic coal stove To make the most of the large NEF RAW files, I processed them using Adobe Lightroom, reducing highlight density to improve detail, while lightening shadows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although, I have described these techniques in previous Tracking the Light posts, in this post, I’ve pushed the effect to a greater degree, which makes the alterations more evident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
