a night scene - a railroad bridge, the photographer was standing right next to the tracks - we faintly see the steel structure of the bridge itself, some distant lights from the city nearby are not enough to illuminate the scenery - but a train just passed by and we see the tracks of its tail lights - two white lines are their traces and they end in the center of the image - the angle between the two traces and the reflection on the railroad tracks produce an interesting optical effect - one can see some ghostly remains from the passing train - the photographer chose a color with a brown tint: this gives the photo a somewhat ominous touch -  although the images indicates speed, the most intense effect is that of depth (vanishing point) - this is a wonderful image
