Thanks alot Paul, I had fun playing with this one…:)

i LOVe ThiS!

Thank you Webgrrrrrrl :)

Oh nice. Kind of Matrixy.

But i fully love the mysteriousness. Very nice…

Very ricky lighting and well handled creating a great mood.

magnifique, superbly evocative. it was top fun shooting with you, now I’ll have to hurry up and upload some of mine….

this is a very timely capture. love the mood and composition

Thank you people :)

Yes, Ed…t’was fun! Looking foward to seeing yours!

great lighting, love the mood. Well captured!!!

Looks like it could be my Geelong train

Great shot. I love it.

Wow – this has gone to another level for me…. Superb light – love the shot so much! You’ve created something really special here melody. Very awesome indeed!

the figures on the right look so ominous… like they’re coming to get you! “Run! Run, while you still can…”
wonderful atmosphere.

That’s a beautifully sweet shot. Gorgeous.

Great shot.

this is nice!!
i like the contrast of colours in this photograph.
the dull red to the black!!!!

Nice darkness, the dark windows and shadows give it a sense of mystery.

I love this, it has such a great impact, and the contrast between colours and shapes are spectacular.

love it

Great stuff Melody. I really like the effect of the desaturated colours. The shadows, the repetition – both very well seen. Excellent composition.

This has the feeling of great importance. Something of epic proportions is about to happen. It feels like a past momnet history is being made somewhere inside it. Time shift.
This is a great shot

it’s all about the light. great work.

Just had to comment again Melody – this is one of my favourites shots for sure… you’ve captured an almost film noir theme – and in current Melbourne timeas welll which is even more reason to commend this image of timeless quality…

Thank you Paul….Im humbled :D

Seems everything has been said about this set of images. Great work, really like them.

Gorgeous work!!!! I absolutely love your stuff Melody!

Great light. Reminds me of saying goodbye.

Dutch trains are bright yellow and could never lend themselves to this kind of shot ;) Maybe to make saying goodbye easier/happier? :)

Very nostalgic Melody :) Reminds me of the old movies :) Congrats on being Featured on the Home Page :D:D

Thanks Craig….The title is actually from an Alfred Hitchcock movie….so Kudos to you! :D

Sometimes a little word can be enough to describe how one feels when viewing a wonderful piece of art… That word is… ohmygoodnessthisisabsolutleyincrediblesomuchemotionanddramaandthemoodsetbyavailablelightispuremagicexcellentframingtoo! Phew! Needless to say this image blew me away! Well done Melody!

Thanks Paul, and thanks for making me laugh so hard on a cold wintery Melbourne night:D

Amazing wonderful capture and the name says it all

Beautiful tone….love it.

The lighting, the shadows, the awesome.

Ohhh I wish I’d taken this one, its just perfect. Meloncholic and still and balanced and beautiful and just lovely. well done you!

Gorgeous image. I was thinking it might be better in B&W but then the subtle hint of colour really works here.

Love the lighting and atmosphere!

I am thinking the same as drmark05….

Anyway.. excellent.

I just love the atmosphere that you captured here Melody, trains are wonderful, to me they conjure up trips to unknown destinations, we have travelled around Europe on trains without an itenary, nothing better than hopping on and off not knowing what lies ahead.
Great Shot !!

Really lovely to see this image again. And its still lovely. Well done again.

Awesome

This has such an ambiance. Have you heard the song “strangers on a train” by Lovage? As soon as i saw this image I had that song in my head!

Once again, your use of light and shadows is fabulous! The desturation to a duotone is just perfect!!!

wow.this is amazing.

Timeless image. Wonderful!

This is truly great-good stuff

yet another great shot im fairly new to red bubble but you truely blow my mind for some one who has only been in photograaphy for a few years, at least tell me you do it proffessionaly.

I really like how you’ve partially desaturated this, it works well with this scene

just brilliant !

Love the mood captured here Melody

the lighting is outstanding!

love the interaction of shadow and light. reminds me of an old film.

Great work…....well observed shot.

hands down awsum!

Brilliant composition and lighting with the solitary colour really making it.
Superb work!

Wow this is beautiful.

Our urban world….

This is a stunning piece brings back some wonderful memories of my train travel in Europe. The mood is beautiful here.

I keep revisiting your shot. The everyday turned into something else.

Wow…’Night of the Living Dead’ here in ‘marvellous Melbourne’. A great example of transformation of the mundane through one’s artistic vision. Exceedingly powerful image.

dynamic sunlight, composition & technique – brilliant work

Excellent use of light and shadow – great shot :)

WOW! I love this!

fantastic!!!

The amount of comments just goes to show how amazing this shot is. It isn’t too hard on the eye, but the shadows and vague redness of the train really set off the image in an incredible way. Much (cyber)applause coming your direction, Melody!

Definitely a true FAV! You have so many expressions and the shadows and silhouette that you have captured adds so much to the piece. Just Love it so much.

Superb image!! I really love the antique/film noir feeling this stirs. I think I need to FAV your entire portfolio!! LOL!

PERFECT! 1 of the few photo’s out of the millions I’ve seen that truely took my breath away!!! I have photogrpher envy

Magnificent work

gorgeous intriguing capture.. so well done..

Great shot. The arch of the roof makes Southern cross almost look like the heritage stations of Ballarat or Geelong. Love the lighting.

Awesome. Simply stunning.
