I like shots like this. It mayhelp to either tilt the tracks even more, or just leave them exactly centered and symmetrical in the frame. Try coming at a different time of day, too, just for fun. Or on a cloudy day when the shadows and highlights might be less harsh. Still a nice shot, though. 7

Nice clear shot of railroad track. Makes me wonder whwre it goes.

wish the rails would be at the same height when they touch the side... sort of ruins the whole centered idea.

I'd like to see this taken from a slightly lower point of view with the intent of making the "tracvks to infinity" effect more pronounced. Also seems slightly overexposed so that some detail is washed out of the rocks in the upper right - possibly exposure compensation -1 would help, or a quicker shutter speed. I like the way you kept the foreground free of distraction - emphasizes the trackes nicely.

Nice idea, but makes me feel a bit dizzy as the horizontal lines aren't level. I'm not sure you caught this at the right time of day, as the shadow doesn't really work for me here. Needs an extra element in the shot to push this a level higher.

I believe you've got the exposure right here, however without the horizon or something to focus on in the distance it feels out of balance.

A little perspective-shift, and this would have been dead-center, but it's slightly tilted.
