Greetings from the Critique Club,
I'm nervous, I also live in Ottawa!
Composition: Strong, clean, well framed; the perspective is great.
Focus: Very good. Same for DOF.
Lighting / colours: Quite good. The blacks of the locomotive and the whites on the wheels are beautiful. The white sky is not the best choice here, a clear blue sky would have been nicer (I know, what can you do about the weather).
Challenge: Meets the challenge without problems.
Overall: It looks somehow like an "old" picture, even though it isn't. The locomotive looks very strong. IMO, even though it is a good shot, the locomotive just is there, not moving, and it almost looks like a picture out of a history book (not that that's bad :). The white sky hurts. BTW, it probably would make a decent postcard.
I looked at your profile, and you do good work. I love the pictures of your dog. Keep up the good work!

| Crysp and beautiful image with the border strengthening the blacks of the train. Would have liked to see some blue skies here though, a white sky always looks strange. Good job - 7 |

| This is a very powerful picture of an old locomotive. The choice in POV is good be could be better: if the viewer couldn't notice the end of the tracks it would have been even better. Furthermore the sky is quite dull at the moment. Maybe if you had taken the picture on a less cloudy day the photo would have had even more impact than it already has. |

| The overexposed(or dull sky if it was a bad day) has definitely detracted from this picture. It might have been better if you had desaturated this picture of all colour. |

| Nice sharp image that fits the challenge well. Shame it was so cloudy but nothing you could have done about that. Border a little bit thick but i`m guilty of that to. 8 |

| Nice angles and point of view. LIghting is a bit uninteresting, but you capture the majesty of this train nevertheless. |
