Hi Igor,
I like this photo. The POV is interesting and the red train against the grey-white of the snow is nice, as are the tracks going off at the diagonal and all those wires overhead. But the human element, the Indian tourists reaching out to touch the strange snow, make this a memorable photo. Well done.
Regards, Jackie

Hi Igor,
Quite interesting shot where the snowy weather adds originality. Red gives good contrast to grey background. I guess snow itself is an experience for them, but I think the outrageous ticket prices are not worth it on those zero visibility conditions.

Hi Igor. When I opened this I wondered why people were putting their hands out of the train windows to catch the snow, but your note explains that. I suppose it's no different from Swiss people going to India and lying on the beach - which the Indians think is crazy! I particularly like the contrast of the red train against all the grey in the rest of the picture. You've composed this well, but I am wondering whether it would have been better to crop away the bit of the train that you were in on the left - can't quite make up my mind about that. Cheers . . . David
