Sorry, it wasn't me commenting. My kids have an awful flu right now, so I'm not finding a lot of time to comment. I always sign my name (and try to distinguish myself from Ann C, who knows so much more than me!)
I do really like the shot. Think I'd rather see the tracks straight if it couldn't be both.

Thanks for the comments. I'm guessing this is Ann? I have a problem with leveling the horizon. It's not just an X and Y coordinate adjustment, but an X-1/X+1 and Y-1/Y+1 thing for me. I notice that I tend to tilt the camera all kinds of ways (not using a tripod) that winds up messing up the images. Great feedback: I'll use it!

Very nice. This is one of the better RR trrack images I've seen lately. The very low camera angle, good focus, and the curvature of the track all help animate the frame. The only thing you might want to do is level the horizon; the building on the left looks very tilted. Of course, if you level the horizon, the tracks will be banked. Take your pick!
