Cool
Shot and has a Jason Bourne feel – lol
Thanks Yvette. Interesting what comes to mind.
I like to call this kind of photograph an “odometer reading.” That is to say, it captures an interesting moment such as when the odometer in the car changes from 99,999 to 100,000. It represents a significant moment that can be fleeting, easily missed if one is not present in the moment. I love it!
Thank Russell for your apt description of this type of photo. I’m going to remember your words.
Not sure I want that job. But someone’s got to do it!
I like discovering minute details in your photos. You know, like searching for Waldo. I noticed the children in the lower right hand corner. You can hardly see them. They are staring skyward at something. They seem to be amazed. I wonder what it is….
The new sign does not seem to fit the stone and feel of the walls. Just seems wrong, doesn’t it?
You’re right Margy. Not in keeping with the old school style.
It makes me a bit sad to see this change; these electronic boards, which functional, lack the spirit of the rest of the station. 🙁
Loses the character for sure
