Very nice train exposure. Soldier seems to be standing at attention, even. Great capture.

well spotted JAS and an interesting way to frame a subject - very cool!

Thanks guys! I had the 70-300 on the camera so the shutter speed was quite fast. I wish I could have slowed that down or thought to slow it down to catch more train movement but actually I was not sure I could even get that shot at all.

I agree with your instinct and thinking Jas; that said you still managed to create a strong image!

Will you ever take an image standing up????? Nice shot, JAS, and very interesting composition.

Definitely out of the box thinking here. Cool how the 'waiting' theme gets highlighted on both sides under the carriage.

Ha! Ha! Bambi! Thanks! Thanks, M.A.

Very original composition! Personally I think perhaps there is a little too much train and not enough background, but still it's a strong photo.
