Beautiful. But too much Photoshop. I think so.

My railway maps and pictures

When I was a kid I liked to draw maps of railway stations with trains, tracks and buildings. Alas! My pictures wasn't good enough because of my "big" talent. But who cares! I liked it and I did it.
Of course, later I stopped drawing. And missed it. But till now I like to view maps. Any. And train pictures. Especially with landscape in background.
Thanks to Internet, it's not a problem now!
Some time ago Google made the great gift for me - Google Maps. My childish passion returns to life on the new level.
And I'd like to share it with you!
It may seem surprising for someone, but I like to admire the picture and then find the exact location on the map where it was made. It's interesting. Try it!
