Hmmm - can't help wonder if it would look more effective with a child going down those steps...?

Might have worked better with a train shooting past...but still good :)

also yellow text for danger is a bit erm....confusing design wise. Something like red would probably work a bit better subliminininally.

Nice shot though :)

Needs a blurry train whizzing out of the tunnel

:agree:

I agree with the whizzing train bit. It would certainly look right.

Not too sure on the text, it doesnt read as snappy as it should really. Doesnt really grab my eye, shake me by the shoulders and say "YOURE GOING TO DIEEEEE" If you see what I mean :)

Looks an interesting path, I want to know whats down there. So I guess it's having the wrong effect on me. Sorry. :shrug:

[Janice]

Yes I agree with all the above.

Sat and looked at this for quite a while.

The area of the tracks looks calm and serene and quite inviting to a child to be honest.

It 100% needs you to sit on those steps with your tripod, wait for a train and get a nice shot of a train coming out of the tunnel, slow enough shutter speed to show a motion blur but still see it's a train.

Writing: Red for me...and different font........this is too babyish.
Needs to be something sharper.

Hope that helps.

Maybe two images side by side - one as it is and the next with a train whizzing out - perhaps entitle it '3 Steps to Heaven?'

Its too early to be creative :D

[Janice]

Its too early to be creative :DBlimey........I'd hate to hear what you have to offer later on, John!! :eek: :D

Superb idea there.

Maybe the 3rd picture being a sheath of flowers propped up on the railings....unless you thought of leaving it completely to the imagination and not having a 3rd? As its mostly designed for kids,... that may go unnoticed, I think.

Thanks all, all points have been taken on board and i'll redo the shot.
btw that shot was taken with a phone camera.
