I found an old train graveyard and got this shot under an old cargo car. I actually liked the overexposed glow coming in from both sides and decided this would be the shot I would use.

Overexposure is the first thing I notice here. I don't think the composition, frame, or subject matter really make up for it either. Kind of dull imho.

Nothing interesting here.

Interesting point of view - a pity that the background is overexposed

This is a really good concept, but let down in it's execution by the over-exposure to the left . The composition is good, and careful thought has clearly gone into it with the placement of the various lead-in lines.

A little better lighting control reducing the highlights would have been a plus. Not an overly interesting image from an artistic sense, it does provide a lot of detail and color differences. A little more thought into the composition would have made for a better image. A good entry into the challenge, it falls just short of being truly effective. Perhaps a little change in viewing angle would have helped.

Background's blown out some.
