RE: Is my Photography on the wrong Track? [EN/DE]
A very lovely image, but it is a very dangerous thing to be doing work on a railway. A fair amount of people are killed doing that. :}

Thank you! I'm aware of that, but do you think that it is irresponsible for a photographer to post photos like that because it could be dangerous to take them?
I've heard that opinion before, and I think there's some truth to that. The great Sharky James did an episode on the issue once: https://petapixel.com/2017/03/12/ep-158-foolish-shoot-train-tracks/
Thank you for the link and your opinion! It's sad that people die because of taking photos on train tracks. I just see so much dangerous stuff on social media every day and no one cares. A lot of people are even admired for doing dangerous things. Maybe the point is that these railway track photos look so peaceful and don't seem to be dangerous...
