Just saw this image when reading the Fine Arts thread. I like this image because i can relate to it and the feelings it invokes. And yes, so very appropriate to submit it to the Travel challenge. Because the biggest trip is the travel we do with the Self. And when life is unraveling, we have this tendency to get in the car and drive aimlessly 500 miles to nowhere just to get the crap out of our system.
You put a lot of yourself, at least in one particular point in time, in this shot. Power to you!

This a very interesting photo. I'm not sure that it exactly says travel to me. It strikes me more as "stuck in the middle of God knows where". The fogged windows make for a very erie feel. What's out there, is it safe? Are those marks on the window somebody/something trying to get in?

The back window competes with the side window for attention. It does compliment the side window effect, but once the eye goes there then where? You can't crop it, because you would loose too much of the seat. Perhaps a different angle.

Excellent depth of field. Nice sharp focus. Lighting is great. Makes a it a real mood piece. The seat and window work well together. The seat says expectation, waiting for a passenger. The window says you might get something you didn't expect. You've got a good eye for pictures.

A nice picture that invites to several levels of interpretation.
