On the way to work, saw a truck got hit by a train, and I stopped for pics.

26 Things #2

Cool! The new 26things project started! Time to get started now, before I get stuck doing it in the last 4 days like last time.

26 Things is a fun photographic game – no winners list, no prizes handed out. On a given date, 26 items are posted on the website and participants set out to photograph each item in their own interpretation.

I guess I’ll decide when the time comes where I’m getting closer to completing all 26 categories.
