This was a nasty, rainy day to be walking around in search of photo ops, but getting just one photo that I like makes it all worthwhile.

Critiques and comments are very welcome and appreciated. Thanks for looking!

Nice comp! I like the foliage,and the entrance of the train, the curve of the tracks. Very little noise for ISO 1250, just on the front of the train. I believe there is a bit of motion blur, but not bad. You probably could have opened one stop and got less blur, and I don't think you would have lost any appreciable DOF.

Very nice train capture. The smoke adds a nice touch and feeling of movement. If I could suggest one thing it would be to crop slightly off the bottom, perhaps just to where the top rail ends at the right hand side of the image. Very nice image overall.

Well done composition. You have captured the train just in right moment. Excellent DOF.
