I really like how this photo is clearly showing modern technology but it still gives me a broken down vibe

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo is taken in York Central Train Station ! From the bridge connecting the platforms...

Time

It has been a while since I captured it, but Ias I recall it was about 19.00 ~ 19.30.

Lighting

I wanted the photo to give a mysterious vibe ... A bit broken down maybe !

Equipment

I used my old camera , a Pentax K20D with a Tamron 17-50mm/ f2.8 ... No tripod, no flash.. all settings manually adjusted ...

Inspiration

I have always been inspired by trains , and their lines... Trains are something that can take you away, but on specific paths. So even though you travel , you never get lost. They offer a symbolism, for my life I believe.

Editing

Yes , developed the RAW image on Lightroom to adjust the clarity a bit so that lines and details are a bit heavier on the picture. I like my shots to give the maximum amount of details.

In my camera bag

My Pentax K5-ii , a versatile Tamron 17-50mm/f2.8 which is my everyday lens , and also a Tamron 70-300mm/f3.5 ~ 5.6 as an ultra zoom, and a fixed Pentax 50mm/ f1.8 for portrait fun... Ohhh... And batteries , battery grip..

Feedback

Well, I am not a pro, so no extra useful tips from me.. just not try to capture what YOU find beautiful. Photography is firstly about memories sticking with you and then about art.
