I wonder how patient you had to be to wait for a train to be on the viaduct! I also like the inclusion of the people. Tiny as it is in the frame, the girl's red jumper is very eye-catching.

Hei Kari,
The people included give a good scale to the impressive bridge construction. Excellent control of light and also otherwise a good work.

Good capture with a very good inclusion of the people down there - always nice for scaling. The bridge displayed right from the low pov of shooting.
