Go Train

'Track and Ties'
I took the train to Burlington and back today for a carpentry job. Here's some of the images. It's fun to play with the camera and explore new 'sculptural forms'. These objects held some fascination for me. I don't know why.
'Hangin' Two'
Hangin' two tractor treads over the concrete rubble mound, that is. Now I think of Fred Flintstone when I look at it.

'Ford'
'Tweedledum & Tweedledee'
The two verticals, the storage container and smoke stack(?), look like they're repairing the building. Or maybe it's a big cake that just looks like an old factory.

'Urban Oasis'


'Roof Line'

'Good Morning Sunshine'

There is definately something about these industrial buildings I like. It may be their variability. Each one has unpredictable aspects as the train passed. Passing these various objects turned a once boring ride into a photo feeding frenzy. 228 photos. Much like highway 400's granite corridor, the Lakeshore Go Train line was a moving gallery for me today.

Cool photos, Billy.

I like the look of the power lines criss-crossing the photos (in Ford, especially).

Roof Line is also cool.

Funny how everyday things take on a new meaning when you really stop and consider them. Makes you switch off the Auto-Pilot for a few seconds.

Going to update my blog tomorrow.
