I don't know what this thing once loaded into trains, but I'm guessing grain or something. I've wanted to shoot it for a couple years and finally decided it's time - just another reason to like side challenges.

I can just about feel that warm afternoon light that's gracing the loader...the perspective of the rails is great!

The train track pebbles in the front, along with the perspective, give this image a lot of motion - until the eye hits the train loader, at which point we have to look up. Great dynamics here. Funny nobody mentioned that in the prior comments.

I like the shadows on the building in and of themselves, but to my eye, they cut the picture in half and make the upper portion a lot more interesting than the bottom. I'd like to see you go back at a different time of day, so that the light would be on the whole building. It's certainly an interesting specimen and worth a second (third, fourth???) look. Just MNSHO. 8)

Great shot, I like how the lives converge in the distance

I love stuff like this. I can almost smell that country train track smell! Fun use of the wide angle - surprisingly little distortion.

I like the play of the shadow from the trees. It mimics the shape of the clouds. :~)

Cool perspective - the colors don't really pop that much on this one like some of your others. Overall appealing though.
