In a world of short attention spans, sensory overload, an expectation of hyper-saturation, the realities of unwanted image compression, is there any room for subtle images?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other night I made this panned high-ISO image of Amtrak ACS-64 616 westbound at Gap, Pennsylvania. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterward, I experimented with various tools to make post-processed interpretations of my original NEF RAW file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used DxO PureRaw, and imported this file into DxO Photolab, and later into Adobe Lightroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are three of my variations below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wonder if the variations will translate via WordPress, or if the subtleties will be lost in translation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
