Hi Brian, What a cool entry for the green contest! Love topiary creations like this. The transport museum is a perfect place for a topiary train! Someone did a nice job trimming to get this wonderful train shape! I'm glad you captured this because it's such a fun thing to see. I'm sure no-one expected to see this in the contest! Well taken with a great angle! Good Luck in the contest! :o) Nancy

It looks vaguely as a train, but I would like to see a bit more definition in the trimming of the hedge. The general outline is discernable but I have seen other hedge cuttings that display much more detail.

First, I want to say good luck in the contest! Second, whoever cut this bush needs a raise. This is an amazing job cutting it down to look like a train. Excellent shot of this photograph! Thank you for sharing! Well done!

I love when they trim the hedges into shapes of things, we saw these in Disneyland only they were shaped in the Disney characters.
Someone was very artistically talented to shape this hedge into a train.
Well captured with good focus, this image is clear and exposure is correct. Colors and tones appear natural.
Well composed and presented!

Looks like and sounds like trains are taking over your brains over there? Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of that well sculpted train. Nicely done!

A very interesting and unique visual presented here of this foliage shaped like a train. It must've taken hours for this gardener to create such a wonderful peace. Excellent photography. Thank you for sharing.

It is always lovely to see artworks such as these in the gardens. The framing, light, shadows, and colours all come together perfectly. Nice effort!
