In Front Of Train - (unframed print)

by Geoff MacCormack

"Heading back to London from Japan the long way, I'd only just acquired a Nikkormat camera which Japanese photographer Masayoshi Sukita got for me trade price, the attraction being its ease of use for a novice. It was my first decent camera. Not knowing the camera, I at least pride myself on getting the composition right. The other thing I love about this shot of David in front of the Trans Siberian Express, at a station stop some where in Russia, is that although David clearly strikes a pose, the image is still unguarded and natural. David reciprocated by taking one of me in exactly the same spot. Believe me, mine's better". - Geoff MacCormack
