Should I kiss her hello?
Should I kiss him hello?

What should I do with my hands?

I have captures a number of interesting photographs today and was reviewing them on the train on the back of the camera. This young woman must have noticed my camera and had a good inquisitive look at me and what I was doing. Well, I was taking your photo too.

Sadly this is a daily view. A homeless woman getting scraps from a trash bin to feed herself. It seems that the group of young people were exposed to this for the first time and were surprised if not disgusted by this scene.

Today was a very shameful day for City Rail as far as commuters of Newcastle / Central Coast line were concerned. During the morning peek there were 30 to 45 minute delays due to a derailment which occurred just before 2am. And in the evening the overhead power lines were faulty - another 45 minutes delay. Mind you I have not seen any workers fixing the lines and yet the train continued its journey - miraculous repair indeed.

Well, either that or simple BS as said Mick - a fellow traveler. I could clearly see that despite the big smile for the camera he was really tired and frustrated by the prolonged travel. He tried to keep his spirit up and we had short conversation on various experiences we had with trains in other countries.

A group of people was admiring the work of a popular pavement artist. A sign on the side of the painting says he has so far spend 110 days on this particular creation.
What brought my attention to this scene was not his work, which I see often by the “praying shadow” cast onto his canvas.
