Personally, I like the warm colors and soft quality of the photo. It adds a lot of emotion to the photo. The geometry of the photo draws the eye to the people appearing to get on. Very good composition.

Making a decision on taking this photo must have been difficult. IMHO, there's too much lost detail on the left.The concept is good but I think I would have panned more to the right and focused on the passengers boarding!

Frankfurt?
Nice photo, the lines work well. The lighting must have been difficult for getting a good exposure, possible highlighl blow-out on the train while still getting enough shadow detail. And that's the only problem here.
I would have liked to see more detail in the goodbey sayers, I can see from their body language that they are no passengers, but it would have just been a little bit better with more detail (I know that this was impossible). What would work with this lighting is when someone was also poking his/her head out of the door.
While I say this I think I see that the doors are closing? Not smart to put your head out at that moment. :)

Anyway, I like it. Good luck.

Nice morning light on the train. Good use of the lines to lead to the subject.

One of my favourites this week. Great composition. I tried it in b&w and it didnĀ“t turn out bad at all. Good focus and colours. Overall a very interesting shot that gets high score from me. Well done and good luck.

Lovely glinting of sunlight there.

Great use of multiple leading lines here. The lighting is a bit strange, but it also appears to be around 5 or 6 o'clock which does inprove the shot. The title really helps for those who don't understand what the subject is. Overall great shot. 10! - xertion

Subjects aren't strong enough (the ones "saying goodbye").

this is a very nice photo but the leading line concept seems a little strange to me... is the train the leading line? if so, what is it leading to... maybe the people in the upper right side? If so, the leading line is overpowering your subject and becoming the subject... - setzler

To much stuff in the background.

Excellent lighting and contrast. I like the perspective of the line in your shot as well. The only tiny flaw is the hot spot on the train but that's a minor concern. Excellent capture.
