I think I understand what you were attempting to achieve. Sadly, you missed it by a few feet. Too bad you couldn't lean out a little further or waited until the train made a right curve.

A combination of pastoral scene and challenge subject this is beautiful and artistic perfection. Green is the most difficult color to properly control digitally and the author has not only accomplished that in spectacular fashion, but used it to properly balance the tones of the rail car. Not a single issue to nit pick - even the reflection in the car's windows is perfectly focused and presented. A perfect example of a well though out image congnizant of the challenge subject and artistic impression. A ribbon winner for sure. Well done.

While some may want more of the train, this shows the journey aspect quite nicely!

Great colors between the sky, grass and flowers. I like that it's all reflected in the window on the train.
