A nice shot.
Good composition, only the shrub at the right is a bit distracting IMHO.
Wilfred van der Vegte 10-Feb-2002 at 10:08I like this shot Marco. The shutter speed was just right to convey the motion of the train, yet the bare trees on the other side are sharp. The cyclist w/ the green coat and red scarf really sets off this image.

Marco--yes as Wilfred said, ".. .only the shrub at the right is a bit distracting . .;" nevertheless, Fuji would love to use the colors you have captured --your timing ushered a sigh from my lips--to go with the "swoosh" of the train's locomotion. I peered at your site, too. If those are G! images, why not bring a few over to Contaxg--particularly the color images-- they fastened my eye---fast!

I simply love this shot. The colors, the movement, the person. Of course without the bush it would have been better somehow, but taking out the bush would have meant losing the light pole and that would take away too much. Move it out of this folder soon so we can rate it. I will give it a '9'.

Yes, perhaps it would have been "ideal" without the shrub, but I don't think it really detracts from the image. In fact, I think it adds something. Either way, excellent photo.
Karl Winkler 10-Feb-2002 at 19:39I really like it
It is really a meaningful photo. I like the rethorical idea of the contraposition between the old woman and the passing train. I like the composition, I like the colors. Makes you really thing how fast thinks are going. I like the red stop recalling how much is "stopped" the old woman (she has a red stuff on the head). Hai fatto veramente un capolavoro !

Beautiful shot. Tack sharp with the right amount of motion is a great combination. I don't mind the shrub at the right, because you would lose more than gain if you recomposed the image...the light pole is a good anchor for this shot. I give it a 9+.

I love it.

tony legg 15-Jan-2007 at 18:54The red scarf is complimentary to the green train (great sense of movement BTW), and the red train signal accents the scarf again. I rate it an 8.5 therefore a 9.
