Waiting

While waiting for a train in India I recorded this moment with my iPhone where so much happened in such a short time. A cow walking by, vendors pushing carts, someone walking down the tracks, not to mention all of the various people in the windows and doors of the train. It was just perfect. So I slowed the whole thing down to take it all in slowly and I find it pretty hypnotizing.

    That’s really cool.

    What music is that in the background?

    It’s interesting how most people just walked on by looking straight ahead.. I think it added to the appeal of the footage, making it feel more serene. I like the randomness of it and how you captured of a bit of a “day in the life” of these people to share with us. Thank you.

    Why did I never respond back to these comments, heh, sorry! Im happy everyone liked the video, I would love to do more video but really, my iPhone is not the best way to capture video really. Im sure I will figure something out eventually.

    As for the music it was performed by a group called Seaworthy from their album 1897.

    Travelling through the countryside of India in a train was one of my best memories of growing up in. I have not done it since 2004. Thank you for rekindling the memories.

    […] phone. They act as a constant source of inspiration and reflection within. This video by him — Waiting — captures the essence of a train-station in India better than any. It was impromptu, unplanned […]

If you love it so much then please, support it! The artistic community on the Internet is based on trust. Without trust then what do we have? are you going to be one of the responsible users out there or will you be among the bottom feeders, stealing content and passing it off as your own to make a quick buck in ad sales.

Use your best judgement and we will get along just fine.
