I see the shadows in this photo, yet they are not adding anything interesting or special to the overall impact of the image... The left half of this image is also quite over exposed... With 'shadows' being the subject of this challenge, I feel that the shadows should be playing some definite role in the image...

Can't decide if I like the overexposure

Comment by Gene L.:
It has a shadow and it has a subject, but a very loose connection with the challenge. I like the angle for the composition, but am not so sure about the washed out look. It does force one's attention directly to the subject, which is very good. I think that this would have worked well for on the road, but I'm just not sure about the shadow.

Left hand side is way over exposed. This might have been deliberate but I think it's just too much.

Before clicking, I run through a mental checklist, one item being 'Am I holding the camera straight?'

The background is WAY over exposed and detracts from the overall photo.

This looks like a train to me. No road is visible.

Interesting... lots of metallic texturing and structure to look at. One of those things you don't look at that way until someone takes a photo and forces you to stop and examine it for a while.
