Well caught. John ... brilliant exposure .. love it John .

Agreed that is brilliant. If you don't mind I may just pinch that idea for an up coming challenge I have elsewhere.

So what point would you focus on for a shot like that John, and would you use shutter priority ?

[Ryewolf]

Nicely caught John.

Thanks all for the comments. 

sjr, feel free.  Be aware though, it has had a fair bit of exposure around the B.P.E. and P.A.G.B. circuit.

Denis, this is quite an old shot and strangely, the metadata is sparce to say the least.  Almost certainly a WA shot and so DOF and therefore focus point wouldn't be a problem.  Today, I would definitely use shutter priority to avoid changes in the light (for instance, as the train passes) altering the shutter speed but I don't know if I was that thoughtful back then.

That’s a clever shot. It has motion, but a stillness as well. Well seen.

[johntwo]

Thanks Vanguard.

Great timed shot and well taken too John, love the colours.

[Kobione]

Perfect catch John, the sign and the sky put it into perspective, well done!

[johntwo]

Thanks David, thanks Kobione.
