Part l of lll of my series "Mirrors"

This shot almost didn't happen. I got here way before sunset, and stayed an hour past. I was trying to capture the popular shot (someone in between trains) but had no luck.

I was feeling defeated until I saw her standing very close to the platform. I decided to pull my camera out of the bag and give it one more shot. What's the worst that can happen right?

When I checked my viewfinder, I didn't get the popular shot...instead, I captured something unique.

A night of failure turned into my favorite shot and ultimately – a success.
