Train Travel
After reading this week’s challenge – I knew that I wanted to incorporate a train – I spend 5 days – morning and evening going to & from work in the City – 30 mins each way – Sydney – an awesome place to work and live – home each night to my wonderful family! The train gives me the opportunity to read and just escape for a short time. A friend of mine who is a great photographer gave me a tip on how to take a night photo – I used my digital camera – put it on manual – set the camera on the bridge railing – and kept the shutter open for a few seconds – to make an image blur – to show motion – I think it turned out pretty good – I tried the white paint on one side of the station and used pencils to colour in and wrote my thoughts over that image – I used old train tickets and the sun rays I ripped from a train schedule. On the “sun” is a riddle – Q. I travel around the world in seconds. You may get me whether or not you want me. I don’t need a key to get inot your home. I’ll help you get your message across. What am I? A. I am E-mail. What a great way to “travel” -to stay connected with family & friends around the world without leaving my chair!
