Comment from JACIRO


Excellent front photo of a train. Full of detail. I feel it a little static, you know, I think it needs something to break the omnipresence of the machine. Something live that confront it. What do you think?

    Thank you JACIRO!! I know what you mean, I did take another that showed several cars behind that you may find more appealing, I couldn't decide so I figured I'd let you all decide for me which had the most appeal.

Another winner, by the closeness
of the shot head on you have portrayed
the engines collossal power. I like the uniqueness of the painted front.

Nice shot. I like the tight frame here as it isolates your subject very well. The colors, clarity and composition are outstanding. The tracks at the bottom give the photo a nice feeling of depth. Great work!

Comment from Maglatron


Trains must be the true work horse of this century. I like that you have photographed to train from the front, it looks far more impressive this way. The spacing between the train and the border is very neat and finished in appearance. I also like the fact that you have shown some of the track, it lets the viewer know that this train is still in service.

Great work :)

Comment from CrisCaper


Another great job of framing. I like how you filled the frame with this guy, then left just enough train track in the foreground to pull us in and give it depth. Nicely done!

Comment from MaureenS


I really like the very close cropping you used on this. It accentuates the size and imposing quality of the engine. I also like the bright reds and yellows contrasted to the almost monochromatic grey surroundings.
