Stopped on Tracks

It wasn't a moment we wanted to remember, then I said, if I start to make a painting the train will start moving again. From my window seat I got about 90% through the painting when the train finally started to move again. It's not often you get to make a painting looking down on train tracks so closely. In fact there were two sets of tracks but I only depicted one here to concentrate on the detail. Most of the foliage we could see along the way was infested with creeper vines, many trees looked to be dead from it or from other diseases. Luckily this scene was pretty lush though.
