Cadillac


 My grandfather had a poster hanging above the stairs to the basement.  It pictured smartly dressed man posing on the fender of (I think) a Rolls Royce.  The caption at the bottom loudly proclaimed "Poverty Sucks."


I can't help but think of that whenever i see this much vintage chrome in one place.

Blur

 


Some of the downhill runs on the Ravenglass and Eskdale can produce what seem like frightening speed, but considering how close you are to the rails, I'm sure the sensation is somewhat more impressive than the reality.

Playing Tourist


Burg Al Arab, Dubai UAE.  You know you're in a tourist trap when you're looking for the best spot to take a picture and realize there's a photographer's booth positioned there charging $10 a picture.  This was taken about 15 feet away and 3 feet below the best spot.

No Traffic?



I don't know if you can ever get a picture of the the Bangkok railway station without traffic in front of it, but it certainly didn't happen the day I was there!  This is actually several pictures taken over a couple minutes while leaning hard against a lamp post.  Afterwards I overlaid all the images and erased the bits that had vehicles in them.  It took a little patience, but it did give me an unobstructed view...eventually.

Season's End

Last photo of the evening, October 29 (30?) of 2020.  It was dark enough, I genuinely could not see most of this color with the naked eye.

Paddington

It's an incredible station with considerable history.  It's also still quite busy today.  
Take a look here for more photos and an interesting book on Paddington's history
