San Antonio, Texas – Sunset Station (HDR)

During my visit to San Antonio to attend Imaging USA…I mentioned to Chris that we stop by Sunset Station. It is just minutes from downtown. We arrived early so we could not get into the restaurant to shoot the famous stair shot. Next time. I had seen that they have this old train out front and the sun was just coming out from the clouds, so I set my tripod low and grabbed this angle. I thought a little texture, gritty noise and a hue change might suit the photo. It was the only photo I took of the train. Not bad. I have some other ideas for this location next visit!
