We took the train for our recent trip to New York. To me it is much less stressful than flying into JFK or Laguardia. No one asks me to take off my shoes. I can choose from an assortment of food to eat. The legroom is better. And they have wireless onboard.
I was a little bored on the trip home so I decided to aim my camera out the window and take random pictures. Some turned out quite nice…and in focus.
These, however, I found a bit more interesting. They captured the blur as we passed by.
I’m preparing for an Open Studio event this weekend. I’ll share pictures of my newest series, Snapshots and Memories from Languedoc-Roussillon, next week.

Those first two look like cool backgrounds to me.

Hmm, they might make interesting backgrounds, Judy. The movement is definitely an inspiration for some type of artsy creation.

Awesome photos from the train window!
Is it Amtrak that has wireless wi-fi?
I prefer taking the train to Chicago…I find it much less stressful, too.
The first two photos are my favorites!
I want to thank you, too, for joining my art blog hop and posting the button on your site. I am your newest blog follower! 🙂

Hi Mary and welcome to my blog. Thanks for your compliments. Yes, Amtrak has wi-fi…at least on the Acela train to NY. Not sure about the other routes. And thank you for hosting the Art Blog Hop. There are some great artist sites on the hop.
