Posted by Damon Schreiber (Toronto, Canada) on 22 January 2008 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.
Another year speeds by, and I'm that much older. Oh, but at least I have some pictures to show for it. Last year I made viewers guess my age; this year I think it should be easier.
I should mention that this is not a multiple exposure or a composited image. It's just that time and trains are merciless in their speed.

@Jason Kravitz: Thanks, Jason! I really should make a point of reading that book this year.
I think I'll go with Jason's nod to Douglas Adams.
Happy Birthday Damon. Time does indeed fly, fly, fly.

@Aaron Schmidt: Thanks, Aaron! I don't think you can possibly feel old with a baby to care for. Enjoy!

@Lorraine: Thanks, Lorraine! Glad to have you around again!
and I looked at the About photo to remind me of what you looked like and UNLESS you've taken it 10 to 15 years ago, I don't believe you, if you're forty two, I'm 68
22 Jan 2008 5:50am
@Lorraine: That photo doesn't show all my grey hairs, but I'll play along... if you're 68, I'm 137.
This is a remarkable image. The lines and colors and just fabulous! I really like this.

January 22, 1966 ... a snowy day in Toronto ... I remember it well ... This is a fine and evocative picture.
