Results - Mini-Challenge #587
2

I am grateful for the number of judgeable entries. It turns out that most of them deal with rail transport of some kind, but there was a reasonable mix.

In Third Place: YWG's Yellow cycle and WV

Nice juxtaposition, good focus, nice colours, got the job done.

In Second Place: Tom C's Tramway

This is obviously an older shot, so it doesn't have the modern digital camera's quality. Still, it's well composed, gives a fetching view, and it shows a good amount of detail about the site and its operation.

In First Place: S_L's lovely paragliding image with mountain and clouds

This fine image evokes memories of my own territory in the Pacific Northwest, on Vancouver Island, where the views and light are the same, as are the clouds.  The red canopy could stand out more, but it was a difficult angle anyway, and the glider was already well away from the camera.

Over to you, S_L. Congratulations!

What a surprise and thank you for the feedback!

In hindsight, I could have cropped the photo to make the red canopy stand out more.

Will post the new mini-challenge this weekend.
