[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is depot town in Ann Arbor. We see the restaurant The Gandy Dancer on the right. Just next to that (not in the picture) is the train station that takes people from Ann Arbor to Chicago. Pictured up front is the U of M hospital where my sister works. To the left is a new park they have developed by the Huron River.
Before I took this photo, I watched the people leave on the train to Chicago. I am considering taking it or driving there to take some photos soon.

lovely shot with beautiful clouds in the sky , i would crop it a bit at the lower part , but it's just my opinion ... :-)

Ciao Migelo


Beautiful the place, I like the look
of the architecture of the station train.
The space of the rail road has
an advantage for the vegetation and
the pattern in the sky seems to emphasise its existence...
Great shot and visual!

dear Migelo,
this shot shows me very strange feeling,
it is surely an actual town, but it looks illusionary and unreal, like in a dream or a nostalgic memory.
the contrast between old house and modern building,
and between perspective rails and back blue sky, maybe makes this atmosphere...
thank you for your original picture,
Akihisa

Hi Migelo , looking through your gallery I think this one is my favorite :-)

composition is great the lines are placed well and do their job of leading the eye, point of view is good , being above the train tracks like that adds to the image a lot , I also like the contrasting themes between the old building and the new buildings in the background , it is kind of like the photo leads one from the past into the future. for me that is backwards :-) I kind of like to go from the future to the past myself and would rather the composition to lead to the old building ;-) , but I do favor old things ;-)

there is one small thing that I imagine you may not have noticed , it is the small sensor spot about an inch from the top and an inch from the left hand corner , it is kind of hidden between the blue sky and clouds , not a glaring defect or anything like that , just something that I notice and feel that I should point out in order to critique your photo honestly , it is just something that is so easy to fix , if it did not touch the blue sky I would not have noticed it.

over all the picture is really good , thanks for sharing it

regards
Art
