COLORS: OPERATION LIFESAVER. I found some abandoned trains oddly stationed behind a building. At first, I caught a glimpse driving by but decided to continue without stopping. It was cold, and I was in the middle of nowhere, in a town that I'd have no chance of escaping had my GPS failed. I drove for at least about 20 minutes past where I'd seen it, and the further I traveled, the more I thought about how peculiar it was to see something so colorful in a town so dull; before I knew it, I'd made a U-turn and was heading back. The boxcar I'd seen was bright orange and sat secluded behind derelict buildings connected to three other cars, each with a unique color. They were the only three cars on the track, and seeing them up close made it seem like I was staring at another artist's exhibition. The words "OPERATION LIFESAVER" were spray-painted on the orange car, and those words made it seem as if there was a bigger purpose behind my return. My hands were freezing, and I'd forgotten my DSLR at home but stayed there for an hour taking photos of those railroad cars.
