Took this last night, before the weather became too windy and drizzly to continue, it wasn't my night as I even trod in dog shit crossing over the grass verge to get this angle, it infuriates me how often people do not pick up after their animals, and the dodgy looks from passing motorists and people watching me doing an improvised boot cleansing moonwalk, at every 30 second exposure, however, that said I'm happy how this turned out as another addition for Dark City Deutschland, do please check out the other photos in the collection.
Question remains, would you stay on board this train?
I hope everyone had a great weekend and so as always, thank you! :)
Same cars, same horsepower, same road... who will be the best driver.
Thanks to the lovely couple Kacey and Michael for participating in this photoshoot.

The circles and dashes painted on the black asphalt have always been an invitation to small children to run along the lines. Listening to bits of conversations of boys and girls on the playground made me realize that each generation of small people have a sense that they are moving through space. What a great way to encourage physical activity.
Yellow painted lines on the black asphalt of a school playground have a special magic all their own. Not only did someone take the time to paint those lines.....but generations of children ran across the stenciled art. We really are all time travelers.
“Yes, Robin, there are quite a few holes in this roof. I surmised that our planes strayed off course when practicing a bombing run, but then I got this message from the Riddler. It says, ‘What sits and waits for those who can wait no longer?’”
“Holy tough riddle, Batman. However will we figure it out?”
“Luckily, Robin the answer is right in front of you!”
“Do you mean the linemen who service the power lines, Batman?”
“That is an idiotic answer, Robin. You are going to have to try harder if you want to remain my sidekick. What do you see on the roof, Robin?”
“Holy flapping wings! I see birds, Batman!”
“Finally, I mean that is correct, Robin. The answer to the riddle is Vultures. I am going to lower you into the hole so that you can check and see if anything is dead!”
“I am going to need the bear spray, Batman.”
“Sigh!”
Mostly off until Sunday! Have a great weekend, my friends!
I know that the cracks in this asphalt appeared before the plants poked their green stems up to the sunlight. However, I do appreciate how small plants will appear through concrete sidewalks and asphalt. The roots of the plant will take advantage of existing microscopic cracks. New cell growth takes place at the tips of plant roots. As the root system grows and develops, these tips act as feelers, seeking out the path of least resistance for expansion.
