The lighting is really low, and she is discolored. Having said that I have this ranked in my top 3. For me the lighting doesn't take away, but moreso adds to the photo. Having such a clear, crisp shot helps me feel that way. GL.

This is my Top 1, with a runaway victory. The lighting and bokeh are just simply amazing. It gives me a feeling of innocence, and infinity. Truly amazing.

Owe yeah, very very good. I like the idea, I like the execution, and I like the fact that I can't think of one other photo from inside the train. Super cool. GL.

I personally like to laugh, and its a nice break from voting. Not only that, but humor is a huge part of photography. Its also of trains and railroads, and the execution on your part is brilliant, standing way far up so we can see the scope of it, and the town for a neat story. Very very good.

This image spurs imagination. I find myself creating stories in my head of the town, of the people, and of course of the train tracks. Very cool.

very nice image, but I'm finding myself cocking my head to the left. It seems a bit crooked. Owe yeah, and I like your choice with the border.

Beautiful model, and beautiful set-up. I dont know though, I think I would of liked the colors. Still in the mix of the top contenders in my book.

Passing Through Town

Well done. The sky seems the perfect color to have brought in otherwise distracting elements. Like the poles, the grain buildings, and water tower. With the sky the way it is, it seems to build charachter, but with say a bright blue sky, I think these elements would be distracting.

Very very cool. It seems spotty though on the processing, for the most part it is brilliant, but there are some spots that just seem out of place. The trees at about 1 o'clock look blurred then erased, and then the bushes right beside the tracks at about 8 o'clock look the same. The blur itself seems an awesome teqnique, but the opacity in the erased spots should be brought down just a little. I hope I havent assumed the wrong things, and an overall awesome photo.

I got this one right up there amongst the top finishers. Great image. The sky at the top would be cool if it were a bit more dynamic. I'm sure you already know this, but if you have Adobe you can go to Adjustments>Selective Color>Blues and/or Cyan. I wonder what it would look like if that color was burned in there a little more?
