train ride

last weekend was the nea opera honors in washington, dc. and while i don't have any pictures from the event itself, i do have pictures from the train ride home. we rode in the last car and my friend megan was so kind as to point out the delicious light that was happening out the back window of the train. so i went back there several times with my camera as the light changed. at one point the conductor even opened the door for me so that i could have a clear shot (probably not the smartest move, but nice nonetheless). but my favorites are the ones that i took through the filthy window - i like the ttv effect and the lone handprint on the glass.

oh, and i did hang out with brian stokes mitchell, one of the presenters of the event. super nice guy. and i also spent some time chatting with composer and honoree john adams, who is just about the coolest person i've ever met.

Great pics and yes, the handprint is very special! Whoever thought train tracks could be so beautiful?
