January 7, 2014 iPhone Challenge – Leading lines

01.07.14 iPhone Challenge-Sebree Power-Web

One of the basic rules of composition is leading lines and it’s one of my favorites. Add a set of wobbly railroad tracks and anyone that knows me knows I’m in heaven. The only thing that could be better would be a train coming toward me in the photo, but the steam billowing out of the power plant at Sebree, Kentucky helped to make this picture for me.

I always like the look of this plant and on my way back from Richmond, Ky today I decided to jump off the parkway to see if I couldn’t get a good shot of the steam. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on your viewpoint, I couldn’t find a spot I liked closer to the plant. So I pretty much gave up the idea of getting a shot and headed on over to US 41 to head on toward the barn and perhaps a different photo for my iPhone challenge.

As we crossed over the CSX railroad crossing leading up to the plant I glanced down and saw this photo. I didn’t get much more than a quarter of a mile up the road when I turned around and went back to shoot this photo.

Shot with my iPhone 4S using the HDRpro App and processed using the Snapseed App.
