About	What else can you do on an overcast and rainy day... but take pictures of reflections in a rail yard. While driving around trying to find a place to shoot, I drove across the bay to Richmond. There, I stumbled across a rail yard, where I attempted to photograph rail cars. After finding them far too difficult to deal with in the rain, found standing water under the rail cars that was between each rail tie. Only managed a few shots of these water images before security kindly told me to not take pictures, and wished me happy Easter.

Thank you very much Hugo!

I wish I had more time there... there were some sections that had oil floating on the surface that gave an even deeper layer of complexity to the poluted look.

I'm so glad that you like this image! Printed it 13" x 19" last night on watercolor paper... kinda loses something that large...so may go smaller today, and on glossy.

thanks again!

cheers,

Hi Joel! Very well spotted, makes a wonderful abstract with those intriguing colours! Thanks for your comment/wishes; Happy Easter to you as well!

Hi Joel, Great to read the story behind it... those guys always manage to spoil the fun, don't they?! At least he wished you a happy easter, so I guess he was still quite OK.

Very nice abstract feel in this one, the blue hues and variations are great, wouldn't have guessed this was shot during a grey and rainy day, let alone on a railway emplacement.... It does show signs of pollution, but the tones hint at a much nicer place, such as a tidal pool somewhere warm and relaxing place... Great catch, the combination of surfaced and submerged parts as well as the use of reflections create a very poworful image.

Cheers,

Hugo
