This shot won 3rd Place/Color Model Photography at the NMRA "Independence Junction" convention in Philadelphia, July 2006.  In addition, it was selected as an "Honorable Mention" in the 2007 Walthers catalog, and was chosen to be the "Power Sound and Smoke" section heading photo in that same catalog.
The scene is on the other side of the Black River from downtown  Glen Oaks on my layout.

The shot was taken with my Konica Minolta A200 8-megapixel digital camera.  As with the previous Walthers and NMRA calendar shots, this was lit by a single 75-watt bulb in the track lighting on the ceiling.  It was exposed at f/11 for 15 seconds.
