Behind the storage facility next to the tracks, I heard an approaching train and looked up to watch it go by. To my great delight, each car of the train was brightly adorned with Christmas lights of red and green! Turning quickly left, perpendicular to the tracks, I clicked as fast as I could on my phone camera’s shutter release button, until the train had passed. I imagined a pleasant blur effect and was quite pleased with two of the resulting images…

And then it was gone!
