Photographer’s Note
This is my last train track shot, at least for a while. I know the horizon is off, and it's not the greatest picture in the world, but I liked it and thought I would share it with everyone here.

Well, the horizon IS off, but it doesn't matter so much when the picture aims to a graphic approach (such as you have here) rather than to a simple description of the scenery. This low point of view on the track gives an impression of speed, and infinity, it gives energy, we feel as we are the train itself!
I have more reservation about the composition: there is too much sky I think, the sky is not very interesting and you could have lowered your point of view to include more of the track and less of the sky.
I played a little with your picture to enhance the graphism. I hope you don't mind!
