I love the up-close details but I wish the rails were a little more visible to get a little more vanishing. Nice shot.

There are great colors here.You have made a great capture of the essence of the rail,but the vanishing point is a too obscure.

Great angle and picture, but the rails seem to converge behind you as well as the last tiny bit at the horizon.
