    Thanks guys, Sometimes, composition, framing, perspective, depth of field, lighting, contrast, color, shading, just come together. This was one of those pictures, it's up there amongst my favorites. I'm using a new backdrop I shot as well. It features an interesting sky.

    I wanted to try direct lighting (simulated sunlight) for a change, as it can produce interesting textures and shadows. Mixed group of Soviet Army and Navy soldiers assault down the rail line.
