Classic train station in Orange County, CA. Empty!
Take note of the canvas grocery bag, canteen, and stainless steel meal container (tiffin). All used daily by my brother. Like the hazy mountain? Look again!

I just love this photo so much - the comfortable intimacy between the father and daughter as they wave goobye to the train traveller (perhaps the wife and mother, or a visiting grandparent). There is a wonderful sense of narrative, with so many stories to explore.
Perhaps not the best challenge for the photo - I wish it was in the Free Study - but certainly one to go in to my favourites.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't really understand how this fits the reuse, recycle theme. If using public transportation is it, then I guess I do, but without the title, this really is out of the box in a way.
Very nice shot and a great choice for b&w.
I'm leaning to thinking out of the box and as I commute away from this image, do so leaving high marks behind.
Good luck.
Some may say that this doesn’t fit the “reduce, reuse, recycle” part of the challenge description… nice entry either way. Only comment: if “two” are planning to board the train – it looks like they are on the wrong side of the tracks… Hope picture does well!
i love the passion of this entry - the sharp light to accentuate the two, the dinner in ecofriendly containers, the girl draped over 'dad' - it all works well for me
