Around The Bend
Done in ultra contrast HDR. The camera was set on the rail, and not much attention was paid to the alignment of the trees and the rail until I put it on my computer and viewed it full size. The trees line up perfectly and reflect quite nicely on the smooth shiny steel of the rail.

Wonderful perspective. The shiny rail suggests this is still well-used – I do hope your camera wasn’t 2-dimensionalised!
Julie Conway replied
This set of tracks is very near to where I live, walking distance down a trail through the woods… between 9p.m and 3a.m you here a train come rumbling through about every 30 to 45 minutes, and every couple of hours during the day. Sure wish they would put more on the daytime schedule! lol
