Looking east along the westbound platform of Branksome railway station – at the moment of the numerologically quirky date/time combination of... 12:34:56 on 07.08.09 The camera shutter actually opened and closed at a faster rate than the flickering of the dots that make up the display. This is thus one picture taken at the all-important moment, with some lines of dots manually inserted from another picture taken a minute or so earlier. I hope nobody minds my cheating in this way!
