Critique Club Review:
You've got a couple of competing items here. The red streaks, obviously not from the train, because of their brightness placement command attention.
At the same time the light above the tree make a play for center stage.
If you were going for a Christmas tree effect, an angle where the light was at the top of the tree would be a little more effective.
Also, since this is and advance rules challenge, I would recommend eliminating the bird, or whatever the object is, above the gap between the two rail cars.
I think this photo might have worked best for me without rail cars and without red streaks. |

a graduated filter above the train would have helped to ensure a crisper star six |

A long exposure that's quite different from the norm. Not sure what type of camera you're using, but it doesn't give you a high enough res and the pixel distortion is obvious. |

you've tried to get too much here, despite the title. I'm having trouble believing the lights are from the train, when I can see lettering at right. the subject tree is lost among the elements except for the moon. |

I'm not sure the the train cars and passing lights add to this shot. Maybe without those it would be stronger and more focused. There's just a little too much going on here. |

Natural stasis versus manic machinery ;-) It's a lively rendition. I wonder how it might be improved a little? The idea seems to be worth developing. |

the red streaks of light are distracting and the tree doesn't stand out enough. |
