Hi Jeremy,

Greetings from the Critique Club...

This is the second entry of yours I've had the pleasure to study and comment on.

I agree with your other commenters -- the sepia tones (and the absence of any elements that would give away the year) has this feeling like an old photo.

I think your photo suffered a bit from the "train" being more of a distracting rather than enhancing element - it's not very photogenic or interesting as presented. While it's a technically good shot it doesn't have a particularly strong composition -- more of a documentary/journalistic feel. (I can see it printed and displayed in the local luncheonette as a representation of a time gone by.)

Please PM me if you have any questions or comments.

Regards, (from nearby Yardley)

Theresa

Nice use of sepia. I like the DOF also. All in all a nice shot.

Seems like the building is the subject, and not the flatbed train... but it's a pleasing image.
