Every Which Way by taffy

Every Which Way

Had a nice quiet day today including seeing The Martian this afternoon, then stopping to photograph during the golden hour. These tracks have fascinated me -- all the criss-crossing and sets of signals.
Thanks for your kind comments on the ICM attempt and the gritty bridge!
All kinds of angles. Great light.

I hope the train drivers know which way they are going! Good grief!

What a great shot, Taffy. All of those leading lines. It is quite a coincidence that I took a similar shot of a train yard myself today. Check it out when you get a chance. Fav for your shot.

All those lines going every which way makes my eyes go screwy! Very nice golden tones in the foreground.

Lovely light and wonderful lines! Did you like The Martian then?
November 8th, 2015  
Wonderful capture, image!
November 8th, 2015  
Great lines and point of view . It seems like you were standing directly on the lines to take this picture - I am never that brave, even if I know that the track is abandoned, I will hesitate to stand on the lines :)

@jamibann Thanks for the comment and view! Yes, I loved the movie -- worth seeing on large screen. It's tense throughout, great acting, wonderful scenery. We saw it in 3-D which was fun. Very satisfying movie-going experience which is saying something as it's so much easier to watch at home! But this one was worth the large screen.
November 8th, 2015  
@nitrogene Agreed! I was standing on a bridge above them. Totally safe!
November 8th, 2015  
Again, great lines and I find the pattern of the criss-crossing and curving lines fascinating.
November 8th, 2015  
Wonderful photo! Railway lines are always so fascinating, particularly where they come together like this. Also like how the red lights show up at the top of the frame as it looks like the tracks disappear into a tunnel.
November 8th, 2015  
Super capture, great lines
November 8th, 2015  
Fantabulous
November 8th, 2015  
❤❤❤
November 8th, 2015  
Awesome collection of lines and angles
November 8th, 2015  
Great shot. It must be a busy station with all those lines. Love the golden light on the pipework and the red lights down the line... They make the lines seem to go a long way... Which they probably do!
November 8th, 2015  
Looks like it could be complicated to maneuver.
November 8th, 2015  
Great perspective and pov
November 8th, 2015  
Nice perspective and capture with this.
November 9th, 2015  
Very nice lines, and golden glow on the close railing.
November 9th, 2015  
@joansmor I think it's where all the Metra and Matrak trains from the south come into the city. Someone must tell them which tracks to be on.
November 9th, 2015  
interesting - love the light
November 9th, 2015  
@taffy Good. Glad you enjoyed it!
November 9th, 2015  
The criss-cross of the tracks makes such an interesting pattern! Awesome perspective!
November 9th, 2015
