The Trained Eye

Views from the train between Toronto and Ottawa. 
March 1st 2012. 
A "canada-gray" day.*
Took over a hundred pictures. These 11 are the only good ones. 
Missed a lot of cool shots of fishermen and one of a man at a crossing who was taking pictures of my train.

I know it's hard to read but this pole says, "TAKE WHAT YOU NEED" accompanied by various symbols. Modern-day-hobo-signs


This photo is unremarkable but on the way to Toronto there was a man and a German Shepard standing on the peak of the green roof. I took this picture to remember that strange moment.



Lake Ontario, inland ocean.





Still more of the Ontario Ocean



Fishermen and pick-up trucks.


And then it got too dark to take anymore.

The End.

* Yellow Days, an end-of-summer song by Gord Downie
"Ah still, summer’s always going, turning everything Canada-gray, and I will miss all the not-knowing of all those summer days, but I swear, I will also take morphine and swim, if you take one more look at him…"
