The pedestrian bridge over the rails offered me an ideal vantage point from which to compose this image. The first thing I noticed was the dominant reddish pattern of rooftops that bisected the railyard. I moved to a point on the bridge that allowed me to divide my frame with the two vertical roofs, and then add a top to the “T” by blending the horizontal roof into the top of my frame. Tracks on both sides of the image echo the vertical flow of the center roofs, while a waiting train adds important context in the upper right corner. All I needed was a figure moving towards the train, and after a few minutes of waiting, one of the last passengers to board emerged from the station and crossed the track at left center. He is heading towards the dark opening between the two vertical roofs. I caught him in mid-step, and he becomes the focal point of my image.
