Contest 233: Railway drama
I photographed this interior of a model railway carriage some time ago, and was struck then by how it would make a great theatrical set. Murder on the Orient Express springs to mind, obviously, but what other dramas could be played out against this background? There's also the problem that the nearmost seats are slightly out of focus. How might we deal with that? Is there a simple solution? Those of you with more time on your hands might like to consider adding lighting, a backdrop, perhaps even an audience... High res is here.  |

Re: Contest 233: Railway drama
Like Glen I have drawn inspiration from the cinema rather than the theatre - but can you guess which film? There's a clue in the animated version (no time to do the speeding landscape like clever tooquilous - perhaps they have stopped at some points  )
