The suggester writes, "Everything from lightning to all the surrounding objects have been captured skillfully by the deviant. The best part in the photograph was the thick ice that is settled on the parts of the Train. The lightning & other details in the Photograph are so good that for one second I actually thought that this is a Photo Manip rather than a real Photograph. Whisper from the past IV by =Patual definitely deserves a feature for all it's details, lightning & capture timing. Last but not the least I would like to say that the perfection in this image makes it highly impossible to be ignored."

This image is definitely stunning.

Even though HDR is a little overrepresentated at some times, it really works so well on this image. The image is very captivating especially through its colours and the astonishing light.
Also the snow works really well, it adds an extra element to the shot.
I think it could improve on composition a little though, as the background (especially right behind the train) is rather distracting. I think by changing the angle this could have been helped, even though I know it is hard to keep the gorgeous placement of the light then, but I'm sure it would have been manageable.

But nevertheless the image is surely awestrucking!
