While on the California Zephyr en route to western Colorado for some
football coverage, I played with photographing objects in motion from
the train window. This is one of my favorite motion blur photos, years later. The trees against the dark background create wonderful shapes in their own right, and I like the balance of mostly solid forms with the blurred lines. A bit of a longer shutter speed or faster train movement would have created too much blur, so this is an excellent bit of luck helping me out. There is plenty of post-processing contrast, and a blue-tone treatment. It felt right, considering the cold time of year up in the mountains.
