Motion Blur (106 of 365)

This was my first attempt at a motion blur picture; a high speed train whizzing past us at a level crossing – this was back on the mainland just as we came over from Lindisfarne.

I’d intended this just as an experiment, but we both decided that we like it as it’s managed to retain the lines of the small top windows and the blur contrasts nicely with the barriers in the foreground.

Oddity (103 of 365)

This was the lovliest kind of Oddity; something really out of place.  The garden it sits in seems to be connected to railway as it’s right next to the level crossing.  Another of those surprises that we’re enjoying finding as we explore new places.

Through a Window (67 of 365)

I had a few days away last week; a work conference in Southampton.  Although I did manage to take at least one photograph each day within the 365 themes, I’m very behind with uploading them.  Lots to post over the next few days!

This one was taken through the train window, somewhere between Birmingham and Southampton (I can’t be any clearer than that).

The hazy smudge thing was on the outside of the train window.
