Description
The infamous Chesterfield Spire. Took on a moving train in the most appalling light conditions... and it was raining so i couldn't hold my camera outside.Considering that this picture has come out really well don't you think? I had to hold the camera steady and "pan" around to keep the spire in the same place whilst the train was moving and the camera exposing. Skillful? I thought so. Care to comment? Medoubts.
I rekon only 20-30 people will even bother looking at this photo, even thought if I got a more "celebrity" Deviant to upload it they would get 100's of people looking and about 30 comments of how good it is... Life is so unfair, and I am totally jealous of those Deviants who get the comments just because they are a "Brand Label" in the

I love this!! It's my favorite spire and my most favorite place on earth! Great shot - very skillful considering you were taking it from a moving train! Even if you weren't - it's still very good!

In a way. It was because of the use of unseasoned wood, and with exposure to the elements, the spire was warped

I like the contrast of the spire against the sky, and the darkness of it. I also like the blurred lines and pole. This is well done.
I don't believe the "brand name" theory of yours. If a photo is worth commenting on, no matter who you are, you will receive feedback of some sort. You need to have more confidence in yourself.
Be your own unique self..the rest will come.
