Seems like something out of a children's picture books sometimes!
With thanks to Distressed Jewell for the lovely textured sky and birds.
After my visit in Brochow, the sky closed with clouds and the beautiful light had passed. Flat and without contrast. I went into town, and enjoyed a brisk walk, good coffee. At dusk, late afternoon, it was still February I went to Glowny station. This station is a feast for the eyes.
It started to rain when the light was in balance, which gave that extra effect and the reflections on the tracks gave that extra. The inscription on the station hall in the red light, the train far enough.
I was and still am very satisfied with this photo.
