Leaves on the Tracks

I wasn't really sure about this shot...the idea was good, but I can't decide if I'm happy with the result or not. Let me know what you think.

Hello there - it certainly makes for a nice photo .. I guess the train doesn't come by there often to blow the leaves off

Nice shot......you could take it one step further.......place a couple of leaves on the rail and then set the camera just above the rail and shoot down the line @ f16 or f22...or shoot from just outside the rail and cutting across it with the leaf in focus on top of the rail...also raise your lens up and get more of the track in view...happy shooting!
