Rita Testa's picture of two trains as seen from the top of The Shard in London has won the inaugural Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) photographic competition. The picture is titled Double Travel and beat nearly 300 other entries.
Testa said: "The view was wonderful and the rail tracks caught my attention more than the tourist attractions, as I saw London from a different angle. I love taking photos of everyday architecture that people don't often acknowledge. I am delighted to win and very excited to see my image exhibited."
Chair of the judging panel, Roma Agrawal, added: "This photo is what infrastructure is all about - providing transport on top of a busy city. We just loved the dynamic nature of this image, captured at the perfect time as the trains pass each other."
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

That was my favourite but they are all great.

My infrastructure shot. I took this from the train window yesterday afternoon. That's the Triborough bridge, heading into Queens, NY. I liked the juxtapositon of the auto bridge, the barge, and the fact that's it's from a moving train. I call it "Three Way."

Shows up as "no way" on my screen. Apparently you've moved.... where to? ... or deleted this image. Perhaps the image is deflated?

That's much better.... I guess you were moving then.

The photographer has done a lot of good work with luminosity masks on that one...

You mean... you mean... they didn't just take a photo? They photoshopped it?
