Dropped my wife off at the grocery store (the building in the backround). It's near the light rail. I was driving around taking some pictures while she was shopping. Parked my car nearby the tracks and waited for the train to come by and took several pictures, chose this one. It was actually lighter out than the final edit appears but I used some selective editing (darkening and lighting) to give it some atmosphere!

thankyou .. :)

Out of this world

i dont know .. but maybe the low votes .. especially the 2 .. were because there's no actual subject .. or the slightly oof foreground ..
in my modest opinion though, the image itself doesnt need a subject .. its complete just the way it is .. and the oof foreground gives a feeling of movement .. which adds to that feeling of being drawn in .. :)
