The building in the background is blown out; but I don't think that takes away from the scene on the street, which is nice. The first thing my eye went to was that very bright spot in the top. Then, I had to concentrate on the scene below and everything is well exposed and sharp. It is also a very good composition in which I can almost feel the tension of the arriving train and the people who might be trying to catch that train before it moves on. Nice.

Thanks, Erich. Chalk up the blow-out to the time of day. It was late afternoon, so the foreground was relatively dark, it being in the shadows of the buildings, whereas the high-rise was directly in the setting sun. But since you mention it, I wonder if I could have darkened that area and maybe brought out the building. I'll have to go back and try it.
