Greetings from the Critique Club
This photo has a nice feel, kind of light and airy. Black and white was certainly a good choice here, and the brightness and contrast you've set suit the subject, and help set the overall mood. The vertical format suits the subject. Composition works OK, although cropping off half the sky helps put more attention on the tracks. Technically very well done; sure, the highlights are blown, but that's hard to avoid with the given light.
But there's no real excitement here. It's just another looking down the railroad tracks cliché shot. Making it exciting requires more interesting lighting, a different point of view, some way of emphasizing a particular feature like the dip (besides the title), or something similar. |

| Well, at least no one harped on you for shooting tracks or accused you of not meeting the challenge! Great depth. Your highlights aren't too bad - I kind of like the way they make the rails seem to glow. |

| Nice angle but, I think I prefer the rail shots without the road portion ... also the highlights are too blown out |
