This is absolutely fascinating! The organized chaos of lines, tracks, wires and reflections are just stunning!

I agree -- there's so much going on in this picture, with the lines and tracks and wires. Yet it has a sense of order, with the clock. There's a lot depth here -- it's masterfully composed. Well done!

great shot! shots like this are getting harder and harder to take in the states as homeland security and their wanabee minions are often present to keep the world safe from rampant unchecked photography...

@djedfre: Thanks!. I took that picture with a point & shot camera. Here is absolutely forbidden to take photos in places like that, but I took the opportunity that I was in a small town where, fortunately, things are a little more relaxed... just a little.
zOOm from Paris, France
Great line of perspective. Great mono too. Nobody's around at this time of day ? You were lucky... ! Great picture Francisco, all the lines converge to one point, horizon...

Kylie Greenan from Richmond, Australia
Great composition, your choice of b&w really gives this image depth and interest. Great lines... pardon the pun! Well done!

Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
Great persperctive & composition with the play of lines. A nostalgic mood also with B&W. And sorry for my bad English on my last comment, it's difficult sometimes to express correctly an idea in an other language... and school is so far... :-))

@Evelyne Dubos: I understand you perfectly because I'm in the same situation than you, my comments are shorter than I'd like because my English isn't enough to express my ideas and feelings about your photos, and as you say... school is so far :-)). I'm sure that your English is quite better than mine Evelyne. Thanks for your comments, I truly appreciate all of them!!
Terre Mavix Chartrand from Kitchener, Canada
What beautiful perspective and wonderful composition. The use of "the Rule" really worked for you here.
Why are you not allowed to take photos at train platforms? This so curious to me.

@Terre Mavix Chartrand: Thanks! It's for 'security' reasons, 'They' think photos could be used by terrorists to plot an attack. (!!??)
Good news for me! a good friend has just told me that since April it's allowed again, Great! :-)
Luis A. De Jesus R. from Mexico City, Mexico
Great wide image. Plenty of detail, but not crowded. Good texture too.

great railway station shot! the lines created by the tracks are very cool and you had some great light for this b&w shot...
