C&C: black and white train station

[Compaq]

I'lll let you look at it before you see my own opinions

What I don't like:

- noise in TR corner
- cut off stairs to the left
- light just behind stairs to the right (bad placement)
- I somehow feel it's slanted, but however I tried to straighten it, it just felt more slanted.

What I like:

- Lines
- sense of depth
- depth framed by bridgy thingamagee
- black horizon line thing

Thoughts? Thanks for commenting

Try cropping vertically at the second fence post on the left so. Next I'd do a horizontal crop right so that where the asphalt meets the square stones is right in the left-bottom corner of the frame.

That would take out the stairway on the left completely and bring the infinite point of the diagonal line at a top right thirds.

Your sig says ok to edit so I gave it a shot. I'm at work so just cropping of course. Also I had to use "paint" to crop and was having trouble with the accuracy so I would have the point in the lower left dead on in the corner and did a better making sure the stairway isn't visible at all.

I like Jake's idea, and as well I think it might be worth trying this again with a train entering the station too. Nice shot!

Something like this?

I didn't like the picture without the left stairs, it just look really unbalanced and illogical.

Yeah it does look unbalanced without the stairwell. But it does help with the noise over there! Go back and get a train and the whole stairway in there!
