Hi Valerie,
I would call this picture as a hard task and a lot of energy invested on your side.
It is always hard to photo movements in night scene, let alone a running trains. But the outcome is a fantastic play-of-lights.
Like it.
Ike

Bonsoir Val閞ie,
une bonne prise � l'heure bleue, avec un fort graphisme gr鈉e � la quantit� d'閘閙ents qui forment ta composition, et avec un effet 閘間ant cr殚 par l'illumination des trains et des r関erb鑢es.
Il y a un bon dynamisme dans l'image � cause du temps d'exposition.
C'est une photo jolie et int閞essante, tr鑣 bien r閍lis閑.
Amicalement,
Josep

dear Val閞ie,
a fascinating light stage of the beautiful night scene,
shining rails are magic courses between day and night,
trains look carrying the spirits of nymphs on those,
thank you for your excellent shot,
Akihisa

Bonsoir Valerie
les sources de lumiere bavent un peu mais j'aime bien le pdv et le trafic a cette heure, surtout a droite ou on a l'impression que 2 trains se partagent la meme voie
bonne soiree jy

photoray (13981) 2010-02-21 15:11

Bonjour Valerie,

The dark adds to the rail yard mystic and the scattering of lights.

Having worked for rail passenger services and construction in California, I enjoy visiting others train images.

thanks for sharing,
Ray

Longroute (19600) 2010-02-23 8:36

I take the chance to vote now this remarkable photo which I had noticed previously. I find it really interesting and fine. All those lights and lines create a charming graphism and a very peculiar atmosphere. Colours are intense and very pleasant and the trains add dynamism. Je l'aime beaucoup.

Amicalement,
Donato

Bonjour Valerie,
This is a fantastic picture.
Excellent shown railway station in foreground.
Tangle of rails, trains, and the elusive mood, which always feels a railway station - it's all in your picture.
Magic.
