David Howarth
I have seen this shot a million times before, always between the the tracks though!!!! What a difference a few inches can make( sorry! ;)) Putting the Camera on the track really draws the eye. I am learning so much from artists like yourself, this is what makes Redbubble great.
Stunning work.

thank you so very much!!
yes, those few inches made the difference here ;) lol!
I’m loving the bubble too & thanks so much again…
