Waiting at the Depot


I went to the city today to see a photographic exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  My trips all start the same way - I have breakfast at home, then drive over near the train station and park my car, and then walk to a Dunkin' for a cup of coffee at and then drink it while waiting for my train at the depot.  I had a great day, and more about that in subsequent posts.

You look like the only person waiting for the train. Who took your photo? :-)

I am wondering where you set up your photo to do this selfie...betsey

My new Sony a7 camera has the ability to be triggered with a remote wireless shutter release. It is a device you can buy that sends out an infrared beam, I think it is, so that you can, for instance, trigger the shutter when the camera is on a tripod and you don't want to shake the camera by physically touching it. But the absolute BEST use of this is a family group shot, for instance, where I don't have to set the self timer for 10 seconds, start the timer and have to run and get in the shot! I set everything up, get in the shot and then press the button on the small device I am holding. In a family group, I can press the button every second until I have maybe 15 shots to pick from because people blink or look away. It is the coolest thing since the invention of the camera! :-)
