Ciao Giuseppe,

mi piace molto questa composizione che contiene un sacco di interessanti dettagli: il binario arruginito in primo piano (buona la scelta del POV basso), la fermata, l'albero e il bellissimo cielo, le colline verdi in lontananza...

Buon fine settimana
Günther

Ciao Giuseppe ,
You've chosen a very low POV to compose very welle this scene . The rusty rails and train stop create a superb feeling of abandonment . On the other side , the atmosphere is not dramatic at all , beacause the colors are warm and the light is beautiful .
Well done .

Byproduct of progress and modernization, very sad but nicely captured. I like your pov and it has a good dof with sharp details. Wonderful colors. Well done, tfs.

Hi Giuseppe!
A real nice feeling to this one. Solid warm tones of the reddish browns really make the photo snap, with the great greens in the distance. Beautiful clarity, with amazing depth produced by the dissappearing tracks. Fine work, warm regards,
Steve

Hello Giuseppe,
This is a very good image and I love the POV. The rusty colours against the lovely landscape is an interesting contrast. Excellent quality.

With this low POV the railroad adds mucht to the perspective.
The beautiful sky was a nice present for the photographer. You used it in a fine way!

Hello Giuseppe

The low angle look works well to tell the story of this abandoned rail line and the dilapidated shed. Even the tree seemed to be dying..

Ciao Giuseppe,

Une très bonne idée très bien réalisée. Le regard suit les rails dans l'image et donne une belle profondeur à l'image. La vieille structure rouillée ajoute au charme.

Amicalement
