Description
Funicular in Zagreb. Its 66-metre (220 ft) track makes it one of the shortest public-transport funiculars in the world The funicular was built in 1890 and has been in operation since April 23, 1893. Initially it had steam engines, which were substituted with electrical in 1934.Having in mind that it kept its original shape, constructional and most of the technical properties, it was given legal protection as a monument of culture.Photo taken with my old Sony kit lens. Strange, I'm even satisfied how it turned out, even without noise. Only few adjustings in photomatix and vignetting in lightroom

Its good see an artist put HDR to good use such as we see here, to many times its either too harsh or too noisy, this image suffers from none of these.
I like the angle the artist has used to get this shot, the fact I can see down onto the street below the trams, the detail is superb and I love the colouration, the only downside is the blue of the tram is too blue, I would tone this down individually in Lightroom, this way your eye does not hit the tram first and its not the focal point.
There is so much to see here the image does not need a focal point.
Great image.

Thank you so, so much Mike
It means a lot to me
I didn't expect such beautiful words
According to your comment I can say that it turned out just as I wanted
And about funicular. It is blue in real, very strong blue I tried to low down the tone (in Lightroom), but it looked very ugly then

I had to do a double take with this shot... it looks like a phenomenally detailed digital painting. I would love to visit this location! Great technique and wonderful subject matter.

The picture looks so colorful and a little unreal (maybe because of position of photographer) that first I thought, that is digital drawing. Very impressing image (to me).

Absolutely Stunning!Β You truly nailed HDR.Β No understatement and no overkill, almost perfect.Β All I'd do is desaturate the blue tram a tad and it would be perfection in my eyes, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.Β
Keep up the great work!

Very interesting. I wonder - is this path in the middle are used by people to pass through the system, or it reserved for maintenance/emergency purpose only?

Stirs up memories from my childhood this does. I remember being on one of these public-transport funiculars back when I was about 3 somewhere in south England. I can't remember much of it since I'm 20 years older now and my memory is pretty vague. I did know I enjoyed being on the things and thought they were magical from a young boy's perspective. Regardless this is a fantastic shot. It has a sort of symmetrical charm to it, which I thoroughly enjoy. :3

Bee-yooootiful!Β I'm guessing you were riding in the other car?
In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, we call them "inclines" for "inclined plane".Β Pittsburgh used to have them all over the place way back when, now there are only 2 left and they run every dayΒ
In Johnstown, Pennsylvania, they have one that carries cars as well as people!
