Between Clapham Junction and Battersea stations.
This is a project where I take pictures from the train window on my way to and from work in London.
So the last six months or so have been very exciting for Pookie and me from a music standpoint. We've finally found a toehold in the interwebs (yes, we know -- everyone else has already done this), and our music collection has been growing rapidly, filling up with all sorts of really exciting, new (to us) stuff. So this morning the only thing that got me out of bed was the promise of listening to a playlist I'd made of all my current favorite songs. Things started out strong, but about halfway through my walk I decided I just did not want to take another step. NOT ONE. It was horrible. And it was not helped at all that Jamie Saft Trio's "What Was It You Wanted" was playing then. Lovely, lovely song, terrible, terrible pep-in-your-step music. Especially because right at the moment when I took this photo I thought grumpily, "What is it I want? My bed, not to be walking, and a bathroom. Not necessarily in that order."

This is what my daily commute to and from work looks like.
I work in this building, but not for Buffalo, there's actually leased office space on the 3rd and 4th floors above the retail store.
This photo is part of a set.
It's been a while since I walked to work, so it was nice to get out with the camera early this morning. Of course, it was about 30 degrees warmer than I was expecting it to be, so it was a bit of a sweltering walk considering how bundled up I was. Heh.

The corn is in that tweener stage, not entirely brown, but not at all green. This morning it was also wet from the night of rain.

[ Juliet, Trinh & Tabrel Go To Sunday Brunch, And They Are Happy ]
Today's FGR 365 is "Happy Sunday!".
I made this for white page but here is on black.
I think I take this picture every time the birds line up on the telephone wires along my walk to work.

When i make this capture in B&W in Photoshop, the colors are bright and good. But when i uploaded the capture the colors are very dark, so as you can see right now!
How's that possible?
I've been justifying not walking to work lately because the sunrise is so late, and I hate sharing the road with cars when it's still dark. But this week I've had to admit that a pre-7:00 am sunrise means I have no excuse. Man, did I not want to be getting up so early this morning, nor did I want to be standing up on my own two feet, propelling myself through nothing but my meager leg strength. Nor did I enjoy a single moment of my stupid walk. But I got into work early enough that I could leave at 4, so there's that at least.

I have been dreaming for years of being able to walk to work in the snow, and today, on a day when I was going to be the only person in the office anyway, the opportunity presented itself. WOOO! It was so beautiful and serene and like I had the whole world to myself. And then I got into the office, and was cold and damp, and really just wanted to be at home, curled up under a pile of quilts, drinking hot chocolate.
