2. By the way, when I did my first scan of the PUG thumbnails last night
when I got home from my trip, the one that caught my eye first was Night
Train. I like it. I like the reflected lights on the platform, I like the
cocked head of the one looking down the track, the general mood.
I agree. In fact it was the first pic that called my atention from the
thumbnails. First I thought it was a night street scene with the silouetes
coming to the camera, but when I enlarged the pic discovered they were in a
train station taken from the back. I liked the pic either. It happens a lot to
me with thumbnails. I think they are one thing, and when I saw the full-size,
it's another thing.
I like the picture, and it's the kind of night photos I will try to start doing
with my incoming Super Program. Risking a LX here in Buenos Aires at night is
suicidal (I did it a pair of times, but I don't want to tempt the luck anymore).
Regarding the fact of facing the subject, I'm very shy, and I lost some pics
because I don't "have the balls" to face the people. I know it's a thing I have
to beat.
But in fact, it's possible the author liked the "from the back" point of view,
maybe trying the viewer to share the feeling of being waiting for the train. Who
knows? Just the author.
