Illinois Central Locomotive, Steamtown National Historic Site (click image to enlarge)

Nikon D810, 1/30 sec, f/9.0, 38mm. ISO 200

The image above presents a front view of the boiler for Illinois Central locomotive 790. The locomotive sits in the center of Steamtown National Historic Site surrounded by buildings. I wandered around and around the locomotive but could not get a clear composition showcasing the locomotive itself. There was always a large building with lots of windows in the background which I found distracting within the image. During post processing I decided to simplify things and just focus on the front of the locomotive boiler.

Not a great image, but the bluish/white streaks and texture do add visual interest.
