L'idée est intéressante, mais il manque de saturation. Le fait que les personnages soient centré, empêche l'oeil de regarder le décor, il aurait fallu tenir compte de la loi des tiers.

Hi.
Very nice snapshot.
Nice expression on the face of the officer.
Well done.

Looks like an absolutely delightful piece of "Old England" - a time capsule from the 1930s into the 21st century.

Even the slightly hazy background of the trees is reminiscent of looking through coal smoke... I can almost hear the train whistle and see the steam.

I like the way the colours are muted, not over-saturated and over-contrasted. The understatement imbues the photo with a certain gentleness which suits the subject matter nicely.

My only sugestion is that I'd have liked the photo to be slightly wider, to see more of the train.
