If you’ve ever taken a train across a state or a country you know you’ll see a lot of small towns on the way. Specifically you get to see the backs of a lot of small towns.
And that’s what I thought of immediately when I read the WordPress Photo challenge for this week which tasked us to find a photo of something ‘on the way.’ So here’s the back of my own small town. You’ll have to imagine that I’m on a train.
You can see all the interpretations at the original post. Or see a few of my favorites, here, here and here.
And this one made me go ‘oooooooh!”
Take a moment and go enjoy their work, leave a comment or two here and there to let them know you enjoyed their choices. One of the best things (other than going out on the hunt) is seeing photos from all over the world, seeing things you’d never get to see without everyone’s contribution.
What do you notice on your way to somewhere else?

…so true! I love to walk those back alleys in old neighborhoods. Those are cool too.

I”m OK with alleys as long as they’re not scary. 🙂

Alleys can be interesting places. Is this the back of apartment homes??

This is the back of the stores downtown, apartments are above the commercial spaces.

Train rides are fun for that reason, you get to see everything

Yep, you sure do! Laundry, and dogs in backyards, people’s pools and gardens, farmland and industry. All of it interesting.

Your new banner seemed to fit the theme “On the Way,” too.

I always think the views out of a train window are quite interesting, especially the backs of towns. Well done, Dawn. 🙂

I always notice it when I come back to town the back way. Always wanted to photograph it.
