Autumn mood

I think this photo would have stood by itself without the model. I find that she detracts from the true subject that I want to know more about - the train.

Those waivy rails sure make me nervous. Contrast is a little too strong overall. And, did you sharpened just a little too much to make up for the rails being oof?

Waiting

This is truely a wonderful photo. I wish it somehow indicated a train stop, though. Only critisism is that his boot isn't completely in the picture.

Good compostion, but it speaks to me of toys, not trains.

Long wait for a fast journey

Cool train! I like the way it emerges from the shadows of the depot, and appears ready to speed away. And, the overhead clock gives another sense of time altogether. NIce job.

old times

Very proud little engine. Nice tones. Desat adds to the old time feeling. Too bad you couldn't have obscured the cars and trailers in the distance, though. They kind of spoil the mood.

Uniformity (c.1909)

Obviously a trestle, but I'd have liked some stronger sense of the train itself.

Close Clearance

Comment:
Nice sense of rural America (or maybe Canada). The tracks disappearing off into the distant fog adds to the feeling of abandonment and neglect. I would have liked it a little sharper I think, and just a little more detail in the shadowed trees overhead.

Ghost Train to Brooklyn
by Rompy

Comment:
The reason for calling this a Ghost Train seems a little vague to me. Is it just because of the post processing treatment, or is there another reason (i.e. local knowledge, folklore, metaphore from a song, etc.). As an image it is striking, but because it doesn't match my picture of reality I'm having a hard time relating to it.

Last Train to Clarksville

Great shot. Really captures that "days gone by" feeling. Sepia tone adds a lot to that as well.
