I think it is interesting. The perspective and composition are both very good and fresh. The deep blue sky is a good contrast to the rest of the image and it helps it pop. The horizon seems slightly tilted, but otherwise a good shot.

I think the shot is interesting too, nice contrasts and lines.

Thanks, guys!

@ Tranquil: I think the horizon looks a little funny too, but I think the terrain is causing the drop to the right.

If I'd waited about 10 minutes, I could have had a train going across, but I left the car unlocked with all my lenses, and was starting to feel uncomfortable about it...

Not mesmerising or captivating but definitely interesting, especially with such vibrant blues and yellows against the dark metal.

Thanks! Although I did increase saturation quite a bit, the sun was at a nearly perfect angle for my polarizer to really deepen the sky.

Don't talk to me about polarisers. After busting guts (going to several shops in person and then buying online) to make sure we had polarisers for all our lenses we forgot to pack a single one of them (they were sitting on a different shelf in the big, chaotic camera cupboard) for our recent trip to the Galapagos and Peru.

Lots of harsh sunshine, lots of reflections, lots of cloudy blue skies - no bleeding polarisers.

I could have cried and did indeed lament reasonably regularly...!
