I love the way the yellow pop, but other than that detail I don't really get any wow factor from this. Just looks like a road. I like the way the rails curve in the distance, I wish this shot had more emphasis on that.

To me it's no more then a snap shot and croped low to hide the background. JMO!

Its needs something extra to make it a little more intersting. The curved lead in of the track works well.

Good DOF control, the color definition is good and the subject is different. Unfortunately, it seems a little flat and not totally appealing to the eye. It certainly approaches being an artistic success as well as a technical success, the image is just one of those images that needs something and that something cannot be specified. Having said that, it is a worthy entry into the challange and depending on other reviews, would be considered a top 30 image.

My eyes are following the railroad tracks but I feel like I'm losing head room. If you can I would re-compose with a little more room above the top of the tracks. Very nice shot, but having those leading lines would make it much better.
