Passengers

Passengers

Elton John

 

Deny the passenger, who want to get on

Deny the passenger, who want to get on

Deny the passenger, who want to get on

Want to get on

He want to get on

Want to get on

He want to get on

To make a chain of fools

You need a matching pair

One hypocritical fool

And a crowd that's never there

There's anger in the silence

There's wheels upon the jail

A black train built of bones

On a copper rail

 

Did something a little different for me this morning at stupid o clock. Went to downtown Minto to shoot a burnt out carwreck, conveniently (for us) dumped beside the trainline.

Thanks to my mate Paul, who is an avid train fan, we rocked up to the location well before sunrise, and started shooting, as the trains passed the shell of the car. Paul had a notebook, with the exact times the trains were leaving the two train stations, either side of the wreck, which allowed us to save on battery, switch the cameras on 1 min before the trains arrived at our exact spot, check our settings for the correct shutter speed, and press the trigger as the trains passed. Too easy really tbh.

Took 4 shots, and that was a wrap. Easiest shoot I've been on in ages.

Hope you like "Passengers"

Cheers, Mike
