Location
This shot was taken in Bentota Srilanka, on a trip there, way back. In 2015.Time
This train track was right next to the restaurant where we had stopped over for lunch and it was taken a few moments after a train had just passed us by, somewhere around early afternoon.Lighting
It was mid afternoon and a cloudy day, the light for me was perfect to capture the moodEquipment
Shot on iPhone and a little bit of tweaking was done on SnapseedInspiration
It was just one of those serene moments that capture your imagination, while sitting in the restaurants garden, surrounded by plants and some amazing sculptures, we heard this train just passing by, this was when I realised that the track is just beyond the garden wall, a few feet away from us. It was a magical moment in a magical place, the whistle of the passing train seemed like a melody in that moment, where it seemed that everything, time itself had paused, what was behind, what was ahead, well at that point nothing existed.Editing
