Way to take advantage of the steam engine's portrayal of perceived speed.

awesome photo. I was about 7 cars back dangling my video camera out the side. Nice to see all the people out at Hoffman Ave. that day. It was a great trip and the Amtrak power was getting cranked up around the time this photo was taken for the journey up the hill from St. Paul to Minneapolis, only the 2nd time it was used between La Crescent and Minneapolis.
 
Very, very nice. Your photo really brings out the shine on the engine, and yet the wheels still have just the right amount of blur.
