The composition is interesting - the contrast between the harsh lines of the box car and the softness of the clouds. The shot makes you want to enter into the picture and be a hobo and ride the rails. It would be cool to see a series of photos -- maybe that show some of the railroad ties to give you a sense of movement or stillness. Good work. I especially enjoy black and white photography because the picture itself tends to speak more some how. #645661

Thanks again everybody. I did get more shots of this train the other day, but the tracks are on private property. Maybe I can get permission some time to do some more pictures and get up close. That would be great. #645997
