Outstanding composition. Beautiful shot. GMV

Brilliant, we agree about the story you can read into this. The covered hoppers could be anything BUT coal. BUT, coal is king in this area.

Rust, stones, trees, train, a fine old house, and the flag; what more could you ask? Splendid image, Karen!
Best to you,
Dick:)

Well...this is an anthropological study if ever there was one!!
Coleen Perilloux Landry09-Jul-2006 17:50
There is so much to see and ponder in this wonderful composition.
Buz Kiefer09-Jul-2006 16:02
We are losing our infrastructure.
Breland09-Jul-2006 14:12
A lot of things to see in this picture Karen. Terrific shot.
Gayle P. Clement09-Jul-2006 13:07
The contrast of the wonderful green trees and the flag with the buildings and train is striking. I love that rock wall, though.
laine8209-Jul-2006 10:13
What an excellent composition & combination of all things, including the flag.

I love these 'industry next to nature' shots, and they don't get much better than this. I wished I lived the other side of the tracks! LOL

Terrific shot.
virginiacoastline08-Jul-2006 15:08
just a rusty highly toxic hazmat/chemical train! lol! JUST KIDDING! I have no idea WHAT train it is
Barb08-Jul-2006 13:37
Very well composed and great shot.
Lori Rolfe08-Jul-2006 13:33
a glimpse into an area unknown.... looks like the place has been around for a long time
royalld08-Jul-2006 13:26
I wonder what they are carrying in those train cars.
Guest 08-Jul-2006 12:58
Nice shot, Karen. I especially like how you captured the flag...and then the Princeton Ave. sign on the left. That building always intrigued me as a child :)
Sheila08-Jul-2006 12:38
How clever of JD to think of that :-)
Nice depth here Karen. Good views right through.
QUERIDO08-Jul-2006 12:24
nice shot!
Beverly Wickersham08-Jul-2006 12:20
NIce shot. I like the texture of the stone wall, and the nice composition with the tall building on the
left, and the flag on the right.
Guest 08-Jul-2006 11:07
I guess you are looking toward the east, so we have all four direction on the image. Very well composed.
