Challenge 452: Off the rails
On a visit to the London Transport Museum recently I photographed this old train carriage, as it reminded me of the trains I used to take to school. Of course, a carriage like this is crying out for the full Agatha Christie treatment, and there's a cast of typically English passengers just waiting to bump each other off. And that view needs changing... I only had my iPhone with me, and didn't use a flash - so this image is as cleaned-up as I could make it. Sorry about the noise. See what you can do! High res is here.  |

Agree with Vern. You, if it is you, look really scary there. Must be the multiple reflections and refractions off all the layers of glass! Interesting. |

Steve, my characters couldn't wait to bump somebody off - now our famous detective has to figure out who and why?  |

Re: Challenge 452: Off the rails
Your romantic rail carriage is too beautiful to use it for a crime thriller. I love it very much! But perhaps is it a crime thriller to abuse seven wonderful pictures of Albert Anker in this way?  |
