I see some high contrast points along the rails, but the majority of your photo seems similar in tonal ranges, especially the gravel and plant life along the sides.
Very strong composition. Excellant use of leading lines and vanishing point. Great depth in the image. I find myself really drawn into the image. I feel like I am there and running down the tracks. Nice job.
Wow! and Wow! I LOVE this photo. It makes me wonder where the train is going to take me. LOVE the colors! LOVE the softness in the distance. Not sure how it fits into the "high" contrast category. But gosh! I love this!
When cranking up the contrast with the slider I find you tend to lose clarity as is displayed in this photo. I do like the photo overall and I find it is well composed just not fond of the choice in being processed this way. Perhaps a B&W conversion would have changed it??? (just a suggestion) I really like the colors in the photo and find they do pop. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <6>
