The Trainspotter
I haven't shot any portraits for a while, so when I saw this guy in Handen the other day, I stopped to ask what he was up to, as it's always fun to talk to fellow photographers. This is Benjamin. He is from Karlsruhe, Germany. He is a serious trainspotter and was waiting for a freight train to arrive from Jordbro. Benjamin is in Sweden for one year as a student at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. Attending the Modern Physics Master’s Programme. During his stay here he lives in a student apartment at Lappkärrsberget. And on his free time he shoots freight trains. So I joined the fun! Here is my shot of the Green Cargo locomotive. And if you want to see Benjamins photos, they are here.
Verrry interesting. Nice portrait and Ben's work is very good, too.
