| I think showing the front of the engine would have grounded this picture better, rather than giving us this seemingly never-ending column of train. |

| Black and white works well here and it clearly fits the challenge. I'd like to see a slightly different angle to include more of the front of the engine, but that's just me. |

| Very nice but maybe you could have framed it a bit better to incorporate more of the front end??? Or perhaps it was not pictureque. Good job. |

| Great job! The contrast is a bit strong but maybe that's the effect that you were going for :) Great subject matter definately fits that challenge. |

| Would have been better with some sky rather than just white out at the top. I guess the weather didn't give you option? |

| Lovely shot though too dark overall on the body of the train. |

Technical Aspects - quite good

| This is one of my favourites this week! A good subject and I like the strong contrast. Good composition. I like the grass in the foreground because it makes visible that the train is abandoned and on a probably long forgotten track. Clever title, too. |

| Very good picture but I think it would have more impact in color. |

| excellent photo :) I love the trains... I would love to hear about this one too... I like the composition on this one with the weeds in front... that adds a great mood to this old train... My only issue here is the front of the train... i wonder why you decided not to include that part in the image? good work :) - jmsetzler |

| I love the content and the picture itself ΓΆ€“ I'd have preferred a colour image in this case, because I think it would show the age of this splendid old engine. (8) |

| very sharp image, but I think I would have liked it better in color. Maybe the setting sun reflecting off the train and warming it up a little.I like the whole old train idea, though. |

nice photo, but the lighting seems harsh, and i really wanted to see the detail in the shadows. also, it would have been great to see the front of this locomotive.

| B&W is nice for this subject. It's similar to another submission from this week and for my tastes, though, there needs to be more of the environment. It's obviously a train, but what makes it worth noting? I can't help but wonder if there is something off to either side that would help draw attention to the specialness of this particular train. |

| I find the contrast a little bit harsh but the b/w works well and the framing is spot on. |

Very nicely done. The b/w does work, yet I would like to see the color version. I definately like the compositon and angle. Good photography - 9

| I would like to have seen this one in color, I think the age might have had more impact. |

I actually took several train pictures to submit myself. I leveled it down to just two pictures. Those were also eliminated when I decided that I didn't do the subject justice. Your train is much older. You framed it wonderfully. I think "color" may have actually enhanced this picture.
After coming back to this site twice and spending more than 30 minutes reviewing all pictures I had giving a first vote of "8", I've decided to pick this one as "best" b/w. |
