Train Simulating Life (going past us at the speed of light)...
- Instead of going for my usual afternoon walk around Princess Park I had that creative urge… So I went walking with my camera and this is one of the finished images from yesterday evening. Approx. 50mts from Moreland Station in Brunswick.
As you can see I’m up to my old tricks with long exposure and post proc!! :D
This image was captured on the same evening as this piece…
Peace and hugs!!
