This is an abandoned train car behind a museum in my town.As you can

see the car has been inhabited,one of whom I met while shooting this.

Craig was a very nice fellow and we talked for an extended time about

various subjects.

You have captured the living location of the misfortunate people in the world.They have fallen through the cracks of a system that has lost it's values.This couldn't be in the USA, could it?Excellent documentary work.7-7

Thanks for the comments,I appreciate them.

Funny thing about this car is that I never realized it was even there.It lies behind a museum in town,almost as if the building was built around it.Ive lived here a good portion of my life,its strange how things go unnoticed sometimes.

It's amazing what's around if you look in the right places. If you like this type of subject, check out Sam's portfolio - he's got a great selection of cultural flotsam.

 

I like what you're working on here, but when I look at the image I get a distinct vertical feeling. The door, the coat, the trash can, the windows, they all make me want to see this in a portrait orientation. I'd also like to see a bit more detail in the center of the image, although it would be difficult with the bright windows on either side. Overall, though, this has a good sense of place and a sense of mystery as well. If you have more shots of this subject, I'd like to see them.

Thank you sir...I actually did shoot this scene in a portrait frame.They are all in the single folder if you would care to take a look.

Neat stuff you have there, thanks for sharing it with us. Oh yeah, my hairline may be beating a hasty retreat, but you don't have to call me sir ;)

What a beautiful way to capture such a lonely and desolate place - I like that irony
