The clouds in the rejected shot are cool. Put more emphasis on them; crop some of the boring foreground out and take some off of the right. If you ever do this over again, put the road in the...

It sucks that the image quality is so poor for this shot. How often do you see three diesels lined up that perfectly?

Troy, your second shot does suffer from some quality issues, but there are a...

The question should not have been why the Big 10 Curve shot was an SC, but why the following shot was not an SC.
