Each week, one of the moderators or administrators selects an image that, for whatever reason, catches their eye. Please feel free to add your comments here. Vigorous discussion of the images and techniques is welcome and encouraged. Criticism of any mod for their choice is not.

This weeks POTW selection is brought to you by Michael (photohiker), nicely done mate. I've selected Ozimax's train shot, "Sydney Bound": I don't know how he did it, but this train just jumps off the screen at you. The composition's simplicity, the choice of B&W and the alignment of those clouds all work together. Very well done! Honourable mention to Remorhaz for his interesting project of One lens, one hour, one location. I'm hoping to see some great images born from this creative restriction. Cheers, Michael Railway3 by Ozimax, on Flickr http://www.dslrusers.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=44200&start=455220#p455220

I agree it is a very nice picture and it works well in B&W. Good photo and good selection.
