really grabs my attention. Very realistic. I would imagine a lot of fine tweeking.

I'll have to work on the lighting. This was an exercise in masking of the rails. I drew an object in Xara X that separated the rails along with the the lighthouse. I used the object for transparancies, also. I wanted it to appear that the clouds were behind and you could see throught the rails. I should have chosen a set of clouds that matched the shadows. Probably a little cloud color would help. Rich

I thought I might be able to use the object to create a mask in Photoshop, and paint out the rails. This didn't work due to the thin line getting lost. I painted out the rail areas with colors matching the areas, and reinserted the image into the object. Rich
