On the platform, reading

yellow stripe =!
What is she reading? This picture rocks my world
her reflection? coolness!
On the platform, reading by moriza.
Engrossed in her reading
she waited until the train stoped
doors opened
and at the "ding"
without taking eyes of her book
she jumped on
before it swooshed again...
The girl's a pro!

I like your comment - the girl is using the transport as a tool. Nothing else matters (to her as she reads).
Did any one notice the red and white stripes in the centre of the photo (Blurred US Flag)? TOP.
