It's very nice, though I have two small gripes with it: The vignetting is too strong and doesn't really suit the shot that well IMHO, and secondly the train tracks are slightly off center - I would have preferred to see these either dead centre, or even better, starting off to one side and leading into the middle of the frame.

Not diggin' the vignette and I'd like to see it just a tad brighter.

Other than that, this is a great idea!!!

I think it is great. I think that if the tracks were in the exact center, than you would have too much of the rock/hill in the right side of the photo. Good job

Nice shot. As others have said, I think the vignetting is a bit overdone, but that's a personal preference thing. I see you're from Sierra Vista. What were you up to in the cold North? I currently live in Alaska, but I travel to S. Arizona about 2-3 times a year.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

I like it. Too dark and tracks should be more centered.

I like the pattern of the sky and your angle when you took this shoot. My only issue is that it's too dark for my taste. Thanks for sharing, btw.
Cheers!

I like the photo in general. I would have love to see a more dramatic sky and the color of the sunset being bring out more. Just my personal preferrance

love the leading lines created by the road here and the contrast of snow and the soil. just some soft constructive criticisms I do find it a bit underexposed and the colors are a bit faint, try increasing exposure and use nd grad to cut the light in the horizon. cheers!
