Hello,

I submitted this photo along with two others of the same loco and all three were rejected. Two of them I'm pretty sure I understand why they were rejected, (I was trying to get a little TOO fancy) but this one I got "bad angle."

I understand that they really don't accept going away shots, but I think that there is a certain percentage of folks who find the rear quarter image of a locomotive to be of value.

Please tell me what you think!

Chuck,

I like your shot, but 'going away' shots of pretty common power are not normally accepted here. Had your shot been a rarely seen unit or railroad or even if it wasn't coupled with another unit, it may have had a better chance of inducing a hit on the accept button.

Certainly there's nothig wrong with taking shots going away if that suits your fancy, just know that the chances of getting it accepted here are rarer than most...

Thanks, Ween-

I understand, just a little disappointed I suppose!

There'll be other days and other trains...
