As I scroll down to comment I see that I like the abstractness of this very much with out any 'horizon' or in this case the buildings and the people in the background. very nice . Like the color and I like the bit of interruption of the color by the shadow. Adds some more interest to it for me.

Great use of converging lines. I like the shadow down the track. To improve the shot I might have liked to see a runner at the far end of the track. Very nicely done. 9

Did you also try a shallow depth of field to blur ( merge ) the lines a little .. I am not sure, but might have helped give a more 'vanishing' appearance.

Not a bad photo and the color and line kind of jump out at you. I didn't like the how curved lines come in from the side. They distract me.

Striking lines and colors! Illustrates the challenge concept well. Don't know why, but I'm wishing for a little less cropping at the top--maybe I need to see the roof lines?
