Fine composition indeed. Reminds me of trips to Ohio when I was 10-11. Not the terrain, but the huge trains. We'd walk along the railroad tracks and stick pennies on the track...result? Very flat copper disks...

This one looks like a mechanical millipede with a headlight, and needless to say, I really love that! What a view this is! I love the emotional zing this has. I mean, you-the-photographer and the guy running the train are (in the logic of this photo) the only people in the immediate vicinity and in a landscape like that, the "immediate vicinity" is quite a vast bit of space. For me, that's nicely eerie in that sort of "We're out in the heartland," kind of way, because the heartland is never a bustling, busy place. It's where dangerous critters live, and where giant, mechanical millipedes go clomping across the landscape (on tracks, nonetheless) and never stopping. I could go on and on about this, but I'll just stop, post this comment, then scroll back up and enjoy the view.
