    towards the horizon

    critiques are welcome, though pretty much a self-explanatory shot. Just want to contribute regularly. =)

    Re: towards the horizon

    Wow im surprised I'm the first one to post here. I like this photo a lot, the bright sky and the light reflecting off some of the cars is awesome. And then in the middle how its opened up, almost like the trains on either side are walls.

    I dont know if I'm the only one that thinks this but i also think repitition takes a tole on the picture as well. 2 tracks in the middle on either side, then 2 trains on the tracks on the outside.

    Very nice job. I cant find anything wrong with this picture.

    Re: towards the horizon

    I have been back to this photo a couple of times and I do like the composition with the trains leading you to the horizon. My only critique is the burnt out sky on the horizon which I can't decide if I like or dislike which must make the photo a success as it keeps me looking.
