Night Train to Midnight by maggiemae

Night Train to Midnight

In the cold darkness of this Oamaru station the lights on the right show where the ukelele group are practicing tonight. Its about 2 degC outside and we have a barbecue heater inside that roars away! But tonight it roared for 5 minutes then ran out of gas! I didn't bring my thermals so after an hour, shot away to a warmer home!
If you enlarge this photo, you can see the front of the train!
I love the light and shade in this composition but boy, that sounds cold!

I find railway stations fascinating, and this is a really nice shot. Thanks so much for your comment on mine ... similar subject but oh-so-different!

I like the bold contrast between light and shadow! An attractive shot. 8)

@myautofocuslife Well in fact I didn't order it, it just appealed to me. It must be something to do with the type of railway lighting!
May 29th, 2012  
Maggie.... This is a great shot. The mood & lighting are amazing
May 29th, 2012  
@nikkic Thankyou Nikki, my camera and the tripod did all the work!

Lots of angles and colours make it interesting. Well captured.

Cool shot and amazing lighting and shadows. Viewed large---fantastic!
May 29th, 2012  
You certainly don't appreciate the fullness of the sht until viewed large that really gives it depth. The light and shadows do play with the imagination.
