It takes considerable skill and artistic ability to create a really pleasing image of a "dump rod"...whatever that is...and you've accomplished that masterfully.

@Suzanne: thx! This is a pullman car, and the rod is connected to a valve to dump the water tank...such a simple solution.

Very well done, I agree with Suzanne. And I like very much the effec light/shadow of the rod against the background.
