Rejected.         
Reason(s) for Rejection:- Bad Cropping: Most often this means that the composition of the photo is poor as it relates the cropping of the image. This often applies to images where the train fills too little of the frame or subject is located too close to the edge of the frame.- Obstructing Objects (Foreground Clutter)

Floyd Gordon General Not a bad shot. Looks fine and IF YOU LIKE IT that is all that counts. By the way the foreground clutter represents the American Flag and that is not bad! 12/16/2006 8:30:46 PM
Andrew Sax General Floyd your right, but sometimes the eye of the public does count. 12/16/2006 9:09:11 PM
SAM Smith General I think a tighter crop on the bottom and on the right of the photo would be a good start for the "Bad Cropping" rejection. 12/16/2006 9:17:43 PM
Scott Flynn General Whatever, Nice shot-I deleted them from my favorites, and don't even look at their site anymore. 12/16/2006 10:18:50 PM
Floyd Gordon General Andrew I do agree that if you "submit a photo" you have to go by the "rules". A little cropping to center the locomotive seems the first step as Sam indicated. Cheers Floyd 12/16/2006 10:29:09 PM
Charles Bonville General As I see it, the only cropping to be done is the bottom. Otherwise you would lose the car in the background and one of the American Flag barriers. 12/17/2006 12:57:14 AM
Charles Bonville General So that's where 506 is! I've seen 503 and 507 here in Oregon on Coast Starlight service. 12/17/2006 12:57:57 AM
jim brewster General pretty good photo comrared to the albany and eastern 12/17/2006 4:31:30 AM
Rick Hoar General The heck with bad cropping, didn't those idiots see that you shot a engine with a bent frame. That should've rejected you from this site! Nice shot Phil, I like this one too. 12/17/2006 4:59:41 AM
Pat Scott General It does have a bent frame, but that does not change the photographic quality of it. That is what they are looking for, and there is something here about the cropping they did not like. 12/17/2006 8:33:55 AM
Rick Stotz General Its not a bad shot, those idiots reject everything. They like shots from 15 miles away where you get more scenery than train. 12/17/2006 10:56:44 AM
Pat Scott General They also accept tons of wedgies. If the light angle was a little more on the nose here, and the engine was a little more to the right of the picture, it might have been accepted. 12/17/2006 2:23:55 PM
