view from behind and slightly to the right of the girl, over her shoulder: her back and the trailing edge of her turning profile fill the lower-left foreground, the SLR camera pressed to her eye, its black body gripped in both hands -- right hand cupping the lens barrel at the focus ring, left hand under the body supporting the base, thumb at the shutter -- the camera strap looped once across the back of her wrist. She stands at the yellow tactile-paved edge of a Nagoya Station platform, weight on her front left foot with the right toe pivoting behind, torso twisted a quarter turn, elbows tucked in, cheek set against the camera's top plate. Below her short brown hair, the loose strands at her nape lift in the draft; her long sleeves are pushed up nowhere, cuffs falling to the backs of her hands, a plain long-sleeved top over dark indigo jeans that break once at the ankle over worn sneakers. Her hair ornament sits at the left side of her head, visible in profile above her ear. She is not looking at the viewer: her whole attention, eye and lens, is aimed up the platform to the right, where the Sunset Express -- cream-and-red livery, its long orange-yellow stripe smeared into a horizontal streak -- slides through the station without stopping, wheels and bogies a soft blur, one lit window after another dragging a smear of warm light along its flank, a fine dust-grey turbulence lifting from the platform edge in front of it. The camera hides the upper half of her face; only her chin, jaw and the set of her mouth show, lips slightly parted in concentration. The lens front catches a small hard glint from the platform lamps; the train is a moving bright mass and she is a still dark shape against it, edge-lit cold white along her right side, left side in shadow. Overhead fluorescent tubes run a receding line of vanishing points down the platform; the far end of the platform and the tracks drop into dark, the train's own windows the only warm colour in the frame. Ripples of reflected window-light run across the polished platform floor and are cut into segments by the platform's edge. Palette: cool blue-white platform fluorescents, deep indigo denim, cream-and-red train with its saffron stripe, and a single warm pool from the train's windows. Photographic telephoto compression, shallow focus on her camera and hands, the train soft behind. Quiet, intent concentration.
