If you focused more in on the rail guard, then it would be more on theme. Right now, it's the opposite of the contest.

Thank you for commenting. I appreciate you taking the time to help. I thought I had it until I started reading all of the comments above! I checked out the samples you offered and I understand better now but, alas, I have already put this one in and don't have a replacement. I wonder if cropping it close around the signal so the train is the only background would help? I will give it a shot to at least get this one out of the contest as it doesn't fit the description.

Okay, I cropped it closer. I hope it is at least fitting the theme now. I guess this will be one of those "learning experiences"! I really thank Jawshoewah for explaining this. I just wish someone would have said something soomer so I could fix it before I had 191 votes that are no doubt very poor for being off theme

It's really nice like this!

Thank you Mikealbg! I appreciate that since I was really beginning to fret about this one!!

It does fit the theme better this way. GL!

Thanks

What?! No water droplets on it?!!!

lol, what is the moving background here? Just wondering = )

Great idea

Sorry author, but this is more like the opposite of the contest goal. If everything else was in motion blur besides the baby, it would be more on theme. Remember, the goal is to focus in on a single subject while the rest of the shot is in motion blur.

It's amazing how a blank picture gets 207 votes! Such imaginations people have these days! WAIT I SEE IT!!! It's pink elephants marching around right? hehehe..

It's Brilliant.
