leaving Saigon direction DaNang in a fridge they call train (-20°C :P) Couldn´t sleep and my camera was the victim of my anger

Wonderful series Thomas. Impressionist? Works really well.

Despite your psychological condition, these images makes a fine series of abstract color compositions.

Indeed.

thanks a lot Paco, Akira and Bent for looking and your positive comments
clearly this is not photography in the common sense, that you compose something.
I just looked in the trains direction out the window as much as possible to the comming scene and triggered shortly before my part of the train arrived at this point.
Luckily max speed in this area of Vietnam is 60km/h, so I sometimes was fast enough.

Now, that is a topic to discuss...

I´m going to go out on a limb and assume this images either resonate with you or you find them interesting, as they end up here in NG.
They immediately provoqued a reaction in us.
I´ll think any of those points will validate whatever technique or approach to your picture making.

the train and surroundings are a great abstract image generator
my favorite is #2
but -20°C inside the train ? you purchased a frozen produce ticket ? j/k

I think they are lovely. As ‘valid’ as any landscape image.

Paco, you are right with your assumption. Maybe I expressed myself a bit wrong. I like those colours and the mood beeing transported by those pictures. Nevertheless it was not a plannable result. This is what I wanted to say and where I compare it against measuring light, thinking about framing, etc. For sure it needs to have an idea about what you may achieve, how to set the camera and when to trigger (as I alread wrote before), but the rest is coincidence. This I compared it to classical photography. I didn´t classify it.

thanks Armando for commenting. "a frozen produce ticket" ;D ;D ;D
Now these old trains have big Mitsubishi air conditioners on their roof. There was never used a control lever in 60 years of cooling.
They were set to ice cold and that´s it. So I was ill after 15hours in that train.

Richard, thanks for your comment. I tried to explain my comments above.

I like experimental photography like this, you never now what willl turn out, set the parameters and hope to capture something interesting

Joost, thansk for looking and commenting
Armando, I felt better 2-3 days later, chicken soup is the best medicine. It is already some month ago, when we have been in Vietnam.

You took a chance; the result was serendipity. Thank you for sharing these.
