There were lots of high voltage wires and towers on the other side of the train, so I was forced to take this from such a low angle to exclude them.

Thanks so much for the nice score, the comments and the faves!

The DOF is just amazing, and the sky just says 9 all over it, so it has to be a 9

A technical success and an artistic success, although a little less of a forced angle would have improved the image dramatically. A little more direct angle to the train would have eliminated the rather undramatic left side of the image and would have created much more impact. A worthy entry into the challange.
