[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In December I happened to be on a platform in a trainstation in Denmark where I had been about 13 months earlier and happened upon this shot of a male commuter. Once again I was alone on the platform with one other passenger so I tried to re-enact the scene which is what you see here. I am quite pleased with the result, particularly the black and white effect of winter with very little colour to show that it is in fact a colour photo.

Technically the previous shot was taken with the FZ20 and this one with the FZ50, I am not sure that makes any difference. The postprocessing involved the usual attempts to enhance contrast and colour and light and sharpness.

This is a very nice perspective shot. Well done on the re-creation of the same scene. Only the train is missing.

Very nicely done, Per. I like the lines created by the rail tracks and the lonely person waiting for the train who maybe is late...You are right the lack of colours is very interesting. Well done!

Being a commuter myself I appreciate both your pictures. Nice composition and sense of perspective.
I also stand quite a lot on wet platforms but they tend to be rather crowded.
