Great sharp shot and excellent angle.
Reading yor comments about the red train,what about selective desaturation leaving the train red?

I rather like it as it is; the blue in the glass makes a nice contrast to the red in the carriages and the angle's great.

That's a great shot - well seen (as usual :wink
I feel I want to see more train at the bottom, is there anything left to play with?

Thanks Dark, this is the full-frame image. If I composed the shot any lower there would be a lot of horrible details in view, under the bridge in the bottom right corner.
I might clone out that CCTV camera, it looks easy enough to do, and the little box thing jus' creepin' into shot under the bridge.

Yet another good one.
I can't help agreeing with Darkmunk though. if the curve of the brigde finished smack in the middle of the bottom left corner it would have made it for me. Any detail under the bridge could just have been buried in black...
The really annoying thing for me is that I walk past stuff like this and just don't see it........

Thanks Mark, but for me it is the abstract nature of the image that I wanted and really like in this shot. Thanks for lookin' and commentin'.

Like the compa (=composition).
Do not see any reason for cropping or showing more of the train.
The red color is intensive, and there is just enough of it ....
Everything is in balance.
Nice, as usully

I would've loved to have converted this one to B&W like all my others, but the grey tone of the red train jus' gets lost in the image and doesn't have as much impact.
I guess I could change the tone, but everyone knows that a DLR train is red, in my country of course.
