The slow(est) train, a photo from Yangon, South

Photographer's Note

Travelling by train in Burma can be tiring, dusty, and seem never-ending. On the other hand, this gives you plenty of opportunity to talk with your fellow-passengers and its often photogenic.

Bonjour Elaine,

Une trčs jolie composition. La vie dans un train lent oů les gens ont plus le temps de faire connaissance. Le noir et blanc donne un petit côté documentaire ŕ la scčne.

Amicalement

Serge

Hi Elaine
the slow train gave you an opportunity for sure, and I bet you also saved a lot of money travelling this way haha.
The woman's shy smile and lack of eye contact really does show her shyness, thats cute, and it translates so well in this scene. Fine shot from this personal experience.
cheers
Craig

Hi Elaine

She is happy to be taken in picture by you and you got a large smile. Good perspective with the off centered picture showing the life in the train. Suitable for B&W!
Best regards

Hello dear Elaine,

Nice scene from the train. Somehow I didn't go by trains in Burma, I used planes, taxis or boats. Interesting black and white shot.

Kind regards MAlgo

Dag Elaine,

Met de focus on de dame en de hoed geeft dit een heel mooi beeld.
Ja, reizen zal vermoedelijk niet hetzelfde zijn dan hier bij ons.
Maar door uw reizen leer ik ook iets.
Goed foto werk, bedankt.

Prettig weekend.
John.

Hi Elaine
Brilliant, love the expression, positioning and slight oof background as they all help to firmly focus our attention at the main star of the show. The lighting is superb and great tonal contrast too. Another excellent shot.
Best regards

Hi Elaine,
A train interior full of local ambience. Low and wide angle is excellent. Framing and focus on her face are just right. And the big hat is a charming extra detail.
