Locomotion |
Description: |
Anyone who takes a photograph snaps it because we want to freeze a little bit of time. We might want to say "i was there" or "that was cool". Some photographers like to use little tricks, like polarizing fiters, photoshop edits, or the old "pan and scan" method, like seen below. After giving it a try, i've decided that it's nothing to write home to mother about. I like to see my trains crisp and clear, to capture the moment as a clean stop in time. |
