color in this shot is quite good. the yellow platform complements the blue and green nicely. however, i have to agree with what many of the other commenters have said: there are almost TOO many lines here to define which are supposed to be the focus.

"leading lines" are supposed to either draw you into the photo or draw your attention to look at something. this photo suffers from too many conflicting lines and doesn't lead the viewer anywhere. without the title, there wouldn't be much of a subject at all.

Ya got leading lines, but it lacks interest and holding power...

I like the contrast and the colours, although I dont feel that the lines lead to anything. Perhaps those cross-members spoil the lines a little.

I really like the concept of both the wires and the rails, but there are too many crisscrossing wire which detract from the pattern you were trying to achieve. Perhaps cropping out much of the top part of this image would help.

There's a lot of lines in this one. Interesting, but seems a bit cluttered.

Photo is well exposed, but IMHO the pic would have worked better shot from a very low angle along the track, I know this isn't always possible due to legal and saftey issues.

The wires compete very much with the tracks, and in my opinion dilutes the tracks' potential impact. 5

Picture is really busy. Power lines really don't do too much for me. Appears slightly out of focus as well.
