130125_162619_0172 Harshness Of The Heat (Fri 25 Jan 13)

Central Railway Station, Sydney, NSW

Another hot summer's day. The afternoon light makes the sky a relentless blue, and puts a harsh cast on the peeling paint of the platform roofing. I thought that the strong rectilinears[1] and harsh shadows served to emphasise the effect; there's not a thing about this image that is soft, and the same is true of the heat of that day.

[1] Yes, sadly I nounised [2] an adjective there.

[2] Yes, I committed another neologism [3] there.

[3] Yes, I verbised [4]... oh never mind, in a world of Twitter it's still as close to correct English as you're likely to find...
