Thanks to everyone who brought us some contrast last week – it was great to see so many uses of it to give us fascinating images. A couple of special mentions: Irene for a beautiful Puerto Rico scene; Janet for a gentle yet striking floral image.
If you didn’t have chance to check them out, the links are below. (And apologies if I’ve missed your post – I’ve been travelling all week so my attention has been distracted – do leave a comment and let me know)

Next week’s theme will be skull – the skeleton of the head (gory or otherwise); the seat of understanding; a blow on the head; a mis-hit in ball sports. Go as wide as you like in your interpretation, I’ll even be happy with scull rather than skull.
Other forthcoming themes are listed here, and to see previous weeks of this challenge, click here

Love the colorful moving train, against that still and ancient background. Here’s my take on Movement – https://catsandtrailsandgardentales.com/2019/02/28/crows-in-flight/

I’ve seen graffiti painted trains as we drove through the US mid-west. I really like it below the Pantheon.

I’ve used an old photo again for this week’s theme, Debbie… and thinking about it now it’s more of a still life rather than movement… but I’ve made it tie in!
I love your photo… the old and the new(ish) together.

Definite movement in your beautiful images, Tom.
And you’re right about the “ish” – this train is on the oldest of the 3 metro lines in Athens.

Welcome back to blogging and thanks for joining OWS. You gave us a strong movement shot, so I look forward to future weeks. As far as skull goes, you can take a wide interpretation – variety is much appreciated 🙂

At least they avoid the windows, here in the Algarve many of the carriage windows are covered too, resulting in a very odd sense of movement when you are inside!

That is rather inconsiderate! I’m not a tagging, scrawling graffiti fan – but here it gave a striking contrast with the sedate beauty of the Agora and Acropolis.

I agree, yours provide a lovely contrast as do the Algarvian ones when they create beauty and avoid the windows!

Trains are the modern vehicles (in both senses) of graffiti these days, aren’t they? My post doesn’t go live for over three hours yet, so I’ll link in the morning, but thanks for the special mention.
