WIP Post: Time

1.3 sec F/20

For my Time Photo I headed to Union Station with a gorilla pod and some neutral density filters.

Upon my arrival I saw so many security guards and staff on the floor being watchdogs telling people they cant have such big carry on, walk don't run, can't sit there I instantly was to apprehensive to risk setting the gorillapod down. The moment I took my camera out a security guard came and walked by me twice before I took any photos. I went to check in with a guard who seemed in charge, rather than piss them off after the fact as advised by Anneka. They stated it was fine with the camera and lens I had and the fact that I was a student. They just reminded me no flash and no tripods. So I tried to make do with what I had to work with and braced myself along some columns. My shutter was set a random times between 1-2 seconds depending on the lighting. I was hoping for more crowds but some groups would come in waves. I imagine it was more active on Saturday than other days of the week with more weekend travelers.

Upon looking at the shots, there were many shots with ghostly figures but the shot that stood out to me most was one with a man who stayed relatively still while there is movement all around him.  The other shots seemed too far from the action, a closer human element was the reason for the Hero pick.
