    Awesome shot! This was done nicely! I enjoy the fact that it is a B/W image just because it makes it alot more simple. The track fadding into the distance was done very well, and I like the crop used, for it wasn't too much or too little. You did a great job on this one! clap.gif

    Why is that track shaped like that in the middle? headscratch.gif
    What purpose would it be used for?

    Oh yeah. Very sharp. Crisp comes to mind. Very nice B&W. Lots of strength. I love low angles like this. Image immediately pulls me forward but I want to stop and check out everything before I go. If I had it to guess, concerning the two center tracks, they are there for structure support. I believe that is a short bridge over a small creek or seep where the arched center tracks are. Help to keep the ties from shifting? ne_nau.gif


    Because you have things composed as you have I wonder if a zooming the zoom effect might lend a potential additional result? Vanishing point of the rails probably won't allow for it though bowdown.gif Michael

    I have two guesses:

    1. possible replacement tracks for the curve ahead
    2. tracks are being used between the rail to spread the load of the rail over a larger area

    As usual Tom, great shot.
    I would have personally liked to have seen more of the background (compose the shot higher) but thats all in the artists eye.

    All the best.
