Train tracks and Life

[ricklumpas]

Here are two of the shots I took while waiting for a ride.





I was on my to way to visit to my former teacher in college who lost her husband to a lingering illness. The tracks remind me of our Arrival and Departure in and from this world.

Train stations do make great subjects Rick and you have captured it so well. Nice depth to the shots. We have a great station here where I live, it is Victorian and I must go there and post some shots. Thanks for the inspiration Rick to get off my bum and go take some pics. lol Go on google it, you know you want to. lol
Preston Railway Station.

Thanks Jake. Your train station has a very long history. The shot I took were from the MRT (Metro Rail Transit) which guess is the best we have in the Philippines. I will try experimenting on some panning shots when I ride the train again. Thanks for the kind words, Jake.

Thanks also, Hadi. It has been weeks since I posted photos in the forum due to my busy schedule as college instructor.

Oh Sorry! it is the LRT. I always get confused. It was from the Recto, Manila station. You have memories of this train? I have plenty.Thanks for looking.
