hello from the critique club
This is a cute photo, one that brings back memories of when I used to watch the show on TV. As for the photo, I think much has already been said. There is an overall soft feel to the focus. Your aperture was 3.5, which seems to be a tad too shallow. The higher iso might have also led to the softer feel. I personally don't like the cloth pattern background. I think it takes away a lot from the photo. Having a solid color would have helped the viewer focus on the middle train much easier. The lines are good, I think they would be improved by taking more of a track level perspective shot. Did you consider trying to just focus on the middle train and crop out or leave out the other trains all together? I think that would make an interesting photo. And it would do a better job of simulating actual railroad track, if that's what your intent was. Anyway, not a bad photo, but one that could be easily improved to make it even better. Good luck in the future.

| Good idea, but seems very blurry overall. Also, the leading lines don't point at /one/ object. I think the image would have beena lot stronger ifyou had had only one train on the round thingie. (4) |

| little larger aperture and slower shutter to get more detail on the outside trains, and maybe a bit different angle so as not to see the ending area |

| Good use of challenge theme. Might have liked it better if all were in focus. |

| A simple and effective composition. The colour seemed a good addition to the shot. I was wondering if the photograph would be improved by having everything in sharp focus. I didn't think that the chosen depth of field helped in any way. Good idea though. |

| I don't care for the backdrop. Did you try to shot with more of the tracks? I think it would have given it more depth. |
