You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Well, NY is long and lean in the upper part so I am not surprised that the trains still run..nice to know that true civilization exists not that far from where I am...great post.
"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

This is also a very beautiful image with a great perspective! The B&W color adds to the effect that it's an old railtrack.
But somehow I like the other one better! ;-)
Normally I'd "mark you down" for such a blank white, detail-less sky, but everything else in this picture is so perfect that it actually works. It's very dark and austere...it works really well. Great image!
