Metrolink at Claremont West Village Expansion

I wasn't really after a train shot, but more the wavy curtain of metal siding along the side of the new Claremont West Village expansion "Packing House" building. The train was a bonus to the shot, not to mention the adrenaline rush when it blew by at about 50 mph.

Really sharp and good tonality. I would have skipped the building work on the right side.
 
A good impact photo but I agree with comment above and maybe crop out the building on the right.

I tend to agree with both of you on the cropping as I did consider it before posting. I already did crop the left a smidge to get rid of something I was not aware of in my finder. I tend to avoid cropping heavily just as a habit, but after looking at it again, it does look better if I stick to an 8x10 ratio and crop out the intersection and the scaffolding. I left the scaffolding in because it helps to date the photo. Now I'm just going to have to re-print this one. Thanks for the comments. And by the way, and quite unintentionally, I noticed that my shot is somewhat of a mirror image of "Arrival" posted by two40 directly below this one in the gallery.
