Sid, why did you underexpose the shot by 2/3eV?? In a DSLR, that is sone to preserve the high lights by using a mask in photoshop. In a compact camera, the noise increase loses the details, more than a blown sky.

Brilliant....

This is what http://www.irfca.org/faq/faq-signal3.html says: A double-red colour-light signal, permanently lit, is sometimes used to indicate the shunting limit on a particular line..(where it is)...especially important that no trains accidentally pass it -- e.g., at busy suburban stations with many automatic and semi-automatic signals which can normally be passed after halting for a specified time, hence a single red signal cannot be used. Normally the double-red signal also carries a board that says 'STOP'.

Great pic, Ashish. Very realistic and full of emotions! Really a different change. Thanx

The herd of goats add a different perspective to what could have been run-of-the-mill stuff. Looks like revving the locomotive is enough for the goats to clear the tracks.

Good photo Vivek. The sun looks perfect!

Beautiful

Hehe, by 'also' i meant you, Abhijnan and I. Or did Abhijnan borrow your camera for his MKL shots???

This is the ADI end of Udaipur Jn where all the BG tracks end. Only the MG tracks continue south from that point on. One could think of it as a 'dead end' kind of signal I guess.
