Maybe in the center or in one of the cross points of the 2X3 matrix. This composition does look lopsided - but it is a great location and the light is really great - so we look forward to seeing more pics from this place soon.

Sorry, but I'd have to disagree with Apu and Akshay. The standout point in the image is the location of the loco. Had the loco been in the centre, it would have taken all attention away from the background.

I think its a great shot and members should be encouraged to try out new things.

Yeah, either shoot straight or learn a photo-editing software and crop the image, so the object is in the desired place in the frame. That is where the large sized images from high megapixel cameras help - you get clarity even if viewing a small,...

That is where the large sized images from high megapixel cameras help - you get clarity even if viewing a small, cropped part of the larger picture. In a situation like the IR where one has to shoot and run, it is difficult to shoot straight, so the second option is often the best way of making great images.

Agree with Sid. I would have loved it even more if the loco was in the center of the frame.

All said and done, great shot Biju! Wonderful background + foreground! Good going with the new cam!

Ranjeet, this train gets a loco reversal at Nagercoil and it isn't diesel hauled through out, AJJ WAM-4/WAP-4 takes it to Egmore from Villupuram and vice-versa.

And how come this is going to take charge of Ananthapuri? Ananthapuri is diesel hauled through out! Was there a loco failure at NC?

Oh! ED shed has gone crazy. Changing the position and style of shed description and logo every now and then.
