clear pic, i like it, though, in my opinion, a white framing would go better!

Yes, I like it with a white border too.. but I went back and forth and felt the white was competing too much and settled on the black. I might make this a print, so I'll reconsider border choice at that time. Thanks for your comment.

It is the colors and what & how we see these "everyday" objects arranged is what captivates my attention. No question. The red buckets stand out against the duo-toned wall. The white and blue hued wall has dirt splatters, stratches, goudges that could each tell a story of daily life in these train station.....and it is not just the walls, but those vivid red sand buckets hanging on rusted hooks and chains.

i bet i've asked you this before,...but,...
have you ever published your photos in one volume?
i mean,...i feel i'm pretty well versed in your photography (well, what you've submitted at DA, that is),...and i own
books of photography,...and honestly, a book of your photography would OWN
most of what i've seen.
not to mention the interesting commentary that usually accompanies your work.

Very very very good!
The subject's very simple and may look uninteristing, but you made it look great.
The contrast of colours white/red/blue is lovely. The disposition of the buckets is great, and I love you you centered the blue/white transition.

What a gem to spot, the colours work together so well, and the buckets have arranged themselves in the perfect composition for you.
Really really nice.
