It's marvellous that you've taken up the highly desirable and rewarding hobby of videoing and photography, now we have a driverless metro which is amazing, but I think it could be a super activity, my impatience won't allow me to learn, beautifully written Geoff, blessings Roy

Your Metro is driverless? Oh my goodness, we are not there yet in the UK, all our trains are manned, a fascinating read and thank you for sharing this unique information, love Dolly x

I was able to see the pictures you posted just fine. I'm interested in hearing about the developments in your Metro system. It sounds like it will work to your advantage. The idea of a driverless train would scare me, however. You did an excellent job of describing it. It's great that you have the transportation to get you out and about now that you aren't driving. Much success with your new camera. Don't take in too much in one picture. Focus on one thing in particular. And not too much sky! Best of luck to you. It's great to find something that brings so much pleasure. judi

    Thanks Judi for the advice. Always working on reducing SKY! My Indian friend helped me back in the early Nikon days with resetting the dial to get rid of too much BLUE! Now to get rid of more sky. Tom has advised I can add accessible Youtube Links to Advanced Edit so come back later if you had not looked at those.

I used to ride the bus when I lived in Richmond, I've ridden a train, and a monorail. I've ridden the subway in New York. But a driverless metro sounds scary. I will check out the you tube videos after work. But glad to see you are writing again. Gretchen

    Thanks Barb. I got up for the potty and to check if I opened this for public viewing. Tom mentioned posting the Youtube links in Advanced edit so will do that after some more sleep.

Hi, sankey

Not only is it exciting that you got your new camera but it's also so exciting about the metro. All the other countries seem to be more advanced than the US when it comes to rail travel. I don't think we have a single driverless metro nor do we have metro that goes faster than 70 miles an hour. So you are far more advanced, than we are about that

I didn't look at too many of the videos I'm pressed for time because I have surgery tomorrow

I think you're from Australia because you mentioned Sydney

Keep on making videos I'll have time when I get out of my surgery

Here the videos

"to another in te videos and shots."

I enjoyed reading your story

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Your update provides a clear and engaging overview of your recent activities and the exciting developments in your area. The transition from discussing your photography and video skills to detailing the Metro system and its expansion is smooth and informative. You effectively communicate the significance of these changes and your personal connection to them.

This piece, My Out and About New Ramble, is very interesting as you include a lot of places and demonstrate some well-done video processing..........

Not on FanStory much anymore, so if it takes me a while to respond that is the reason. Hope all well in your world these days. Interesting information provided in this post.

Good to see you back, and with such an interesting reason for your absence. We have driverless metros at the airports here in France. They scare me silly. They are only about 4 stations long, then a return, but I can't help imagining crashes or dereilments. Your more sophisticated system scares me even more, predictably. kay
