Last Wednesday I had to make an emergency visit to my mum - she had a fall on Tuesday and had been in hospital overnight, so I was on my way to look after her for a few days.
I took a number of photos of the railway station in York while waiting for my train, but I particularly liked this shot of the arch with a family group sat on a seat on platform 3. I love the colour of the yellow brickwork.
This shot made me wonder about the journeys that others there were making. Where were this family going? - on holiday, visiting friends, a family emergency? I don't know, but it's fascinating to speculate about fellow passengers!
Finally a big thank you to all those who sent good wishes for my mum. Although she collected a few bruises and was shaken by her fall, she is now feeling much better.
Great candid of that beautiful station. Lovely framed by the arch.
Hope that it was n`t to bad and everything develop well and cure quick for you Mum..
Thank you Debra - I find it a real struggle to take photos with people in, since I know how much I dislike having my photo taken, but I thought this was worth the struggle.
Thank you Shepherdman's Wife - It is interesting to speculate about others journeys, and fascinating sometimes to talk to fellow travellers on the journey!
Thank you Molly - all the many times I've used this station before and never noticed this view! Lucy has gone to see my mum today, so that will really cheer her up!
Thank you Malc - there are several of these arches, so I need to have a look at what else I can do with them! Lucy has gone to see my mum today, so that will really cheer her up!
Hope that it was n`t to bad and everything develop well and cure quick for you Mum..
