Description *sights...nothing much, just an ordinary day. Going from New Belgrade, october cold day in june, god damn rain, at least half of me lost somewhere in the song by Vanessa Carlton...

And I liked the atmosphere on the photo.

*********************************
Just a day,
Just an ordinary day.
Just trying to get by.
Just a boy,
Just an ordinary boy.
But he was looking to the sky.
And as he asked if I would come along
I started to realize
That everyday you find
Just what he's looking for,
Like a shooting star he shines.
...
He said take my hand,
Live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
...
And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words
Although they did not feel
For I felt what I had not felt before
You'd swear those words could heal.
And as I looked up into those eyes
His vision borrows mine.
And I know he's no stranger,
For I feel I've held him for all of time.

lyrics and music by: Vanessa Carlton

Xairomai p s arese, euxaristw polu gia to favaki kai to kritiki.
And you are right, it is a train bridge up there. I did wanted to try lower angle, but I was rushing to get into that tram going towards me. It was really more of a snap shot in a hurry, than a composed photo. But, as I pass there quite often I will definitely try lower angle one of these days
Thanks again!!!

Καταπληκτική φωτογραφία και σίγουρα όχι συνηθισμένη.
Δίνει απίστευτη ατμόσφαιρα κι αρχικά νόμιζα ότι ο ατμός ήταν edit.

Έχεις μερικά διαμαντάκια στην σου

Ο καθένας εθεώρησε ότι ο ατμός προστέθηκε αλλά όχι. Σας ευχαριστώ για το σχόλιο και είμαι ευτυχής ότι συμπαθείτε τη φωτογραφία μου.

Θλιβερός για τα όχι τόσο καλά ελληνικά μου, μαθαίνω ακόμα.

Απλά επειδή φαίνεται έτσι, αλλά είναι καταπληκτικό που είανι φυσικό. Όσο για τα ελληνικά, σχεδόν δεν θα το καταλάβαινα ότι δεν είναι η μητρική σου γλώσσα αν δεν μου το 'λεγες.

Δεν είναι η μητρική γλώσσα μου, είμαι μέρος ελληνικά από την προέλευση, αλλά γεννήθηκα στη Σερβία. Μαθαίνω ακόμα, και ελπίζω ότι θα το μάθω αγαθό σύντομα!

Is it a train station?
I really like the atmosphere here.The silouhettes add a lot.I can feel the city vibe.
What is the white thing over the rails?It looks like a fog.Are you in a bus or something?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

absinthFenix In reply to aR-Ka [2009-07-09 08:15:18 +0000 UTC]

It is a tram station and a bus stop also. Train station was actually above me, over that bridge you can also see. The white thing is steam which was quite vividly visible there since there was not much light. The previous day was damn hot, but that night we had lots of rain (like every day here all summer! funny weather, I am starting to think we are in the monsoon season here...)so the asphalt was steaming.
I am not in a bus, I was just walking towards the tram station, but held a camera slightly above my head.
Again, you noticed so many details, sharp eye!

Yes, the asphalt is always steaming these days, as I told you, we have funny weather. Every afternoon feels like the end of the world. I was caught in a real flood on the street yesterday!
That day was so much humidity in the air that I almost started to fear for my photo gear, so I got away asap

I have this strange belief that cameras are tougher these days...i always take my nikon out when its raining(coz i love rainy photos) and just clean the lens so the photo is crisp...(dont tell it to the next buyer)

if u are afraid use your old 35mm camera!

absinthFenix In reply to aR-Ka [2009-07-09 08:57:20 +0000 UTC]

I agree cameras are tougher but when I hear shutter squeaking a bit, I do not like it. 35mm haaaa! I take care about it more than myself! That baby do not go on the rain. Only my 400D...sometimes...if must...
about your rainy shots
