I hope I get a little credit for practically lying across these tracks to get this shot. I'm having a flashback to the old silent movie where the dastardly villain ties the helpless maiden to the tracks with the oncoming train lumbering around the bend!

Hmm! I worry about you, Virginia. Going around the bend these days?
Hi, Virginia. Well, I see that your hearing is good since you got up when you heard the whistle blow, I guess.
I still love Dudley Doright and archvillain Snidely Whiplash that you can read more about right here.
You get full credit from me. ;)
The flashback you described totally implanted those little soundtracks that used to accompany those films and animations.
I know have visions and sounds of Charlie Chapman trying to rescue the girl from oncoming disaster!
i like the curve of the bend in this photo. nice composition, V. did anyone see you taking this picture? ;)
Bibi,
You know I almost added that about Dudley Doright but couldn't remember the villain's name and couldn't think of anyone to ask! Thanks for the link.
Eki,
As a matter of fact I was with another photographer and her daughter but they were working with a client.
I do think I heard some guffaws however. It was an interesting sight for sure!
Kate,
You need to worry about me!
Thanks Damien!!
You get lots of credit. Train tracks are such a great metaphor, but never seen them from this perspective before.
It was worth the effort! Great photo.
Though I can't imagine you as a helpless maiden! Think you'd give the dastardly villain what for! lol!
I can hear the silent film music accompanying the fair maiden's struggle! You've got me chuckling on this, and it's not right since it's a seriously well-done photo! I think with the colors, it's so cheerful.
(BTW you give me too much credit on the moon-cloud-bird sunset photo - no creative cropping, it was the only way I could get all 3 in the frame. LOL.)
Very nice shot!

Photographers (real ones) will do just about anything to get a shot, so I'm not surprised you laid yourself down on a railroad track.
In fact, these days it's hard to keep track of you altogether!
Great picture. Have not seen clip about helpless maiden and villan in many years but I well remember them. It is not PC to show helpless maidens anymore!

You have a bonus almost limitless!
:-)
Beautiful shot!

This shot makes me feel dizzy. You are far braver than I lying on that track to take this great shot!
You definitely know how to keep your ear to the rail. This shot is excellent, your daring girl.
