I think that the processing on this image really enhances the overall feel. I like the old look of this old steamer and the soft colors make it all feel nostalgic. The tonemapping did a wonderful job, the only thing I would suggest is to add a little bit of softlight in order to boost the contrast a little bit. I think that this little amount of contrast boost will really make this image POP! I can only imagine that if this wasn't in a free study challenge that it would have scored higher. Despite that, it is still a fascinating image and one to be proud of. I bet it would even look delightful on canvas, maybe even mounted in a electric train set room for the conductor to enjoy!

Sarah - I love this image and the look you achieved. It's a decent finish, though I'm sorry it wasn't in the 6's. However, look at all the sixes you got - tons! Won't be long now.

The HDR processing looks rather flat (i.e. too strong), 5.
