Oops? Not quite blurry enough to be abstract, yet too blurry to be a photo of merit.

Interesting to look at in a documentary, photojournalism approach, but a little thin on the artistic side IMO. Hope you got the heck out of there after taking the photo. Thought they were evacuating the area (based on the forum thread I read). Anyway, best of luck to you in the challenge.

The Cheap Seats

It's cute and humorous but as a challenge entry it has a few "distractions" that are pulling it down. Some haloing around the wheels and the persons torso. Miscellaneous items in the background (tree, building, lines, etc...) that take away from the subject. The color of the sky looks a little strange. All of this is JMO of course and others may see it quite differently. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Rails Through Autumn

Nice color, simple image. Traditional leading lines. I like what you've done here. One thing I do find distracting is what appears to be selective use of gaussian blur on the trees in the background. The bare patch of tree that is sharp (couple of areas, one left and one right bg) make it evident that some manipulation was going on. Not that it's not know in general, but when it jumps out at you, well...it's distracting, that's all. With all of that said - I still like it overall. :D Good luck in the challenge.

Where no train has gone before

This is wonderful in it's simplicity and the way the viewer is drawn into the image with the road leading into the woods. Very nice job of processing. I love the tones. Well done. Good luck in the challenge.

Narrow Guage of Interest

I like your take on this with the photo getting the train on the move away from you. Yours is the only one like that in this challenge. Hopefully it wasn't a mistake (had to change the battery, etc...). :D It's kind of cool the way the smoke forms a diagonal line across the image. Then the distant tree line and hillside act as a stopper and bring you back to the train (at least for me). Hey! I just noticed at the distant tree line - a line of people? I only discovered this because I was wondering how this would look cropped in a bit and I was about ready to give you kudos for NOT cropping it. Now I see another reason why you didn't. Fun image to look at. Hope it does well for you - good luck.

Hey. That's cheating. Well, not really, but it feels that way. :D Seeing how the challenge theme is trains & railroads I'll evaluate the image within your image. Hmmm...tracks are a bit centered and I wish they didn't end so abruptly. Sky is "ok", bit on the ho-hum side. Color saturation is good, although I wonder how it would look in B/W? Oops, then it wouldn't look right with the black bg and white mat. Oh well. Cute. Good luck.
