Known as the last of the great railway stations built in the United States, Union Station in downtown Los Angeles has been completed in 1939 and today still serves about 110,000 passengers daily. For years I had been unsuccessfully trying to get a unique shot of that building. When I drove by yesterday morning and saw it in its Christmas makeup I knew that I had my shot (the building is actually white). All I needed to do is wait for a car to put some color on that big piece of grey concrete in the foreground. Voila!

A great photograph is absorbed by the eyes and stored in the heart.
