This whole shot was something of an accident. I was trying to take some night shots of the fog on a lake near my house and as I walked back to the car a train passed. I swung up the camera, and took (what turned out to be) the last shot before the battery died. It was foggy and I had smudged the lens a bit which created the effect around the light. It's a small miracle that I managed to hold the camera steady with only a monopod (b/c my tripod legs were folded together)!
On my computer the photo looks great, but on some other computers it looks overly dark... hope most viewers have a screen more like mine :)

This photo is too busy. The train steals attention from the sun, and the sun distracts you from the train. If only one was the focal point of this image, I would like it a lot more, but it is still a nice image.
nice shot! very different from the standard dpc-faire. hope it does well for you, and, if it doesn't, don't take it personally. this is a strong effort, and there are those of us here who actually do appreciate this type of stuff. thanks for submitting!
