Light at the end of the tunnel

There are many images, icons, and scientific experiments associated with light. We think of light as the sun, a light bulb, a certain glow. A halo, a star, a candle's flame.

Here, in this shot, we quite literally get the ever-famous: light at the end of the tunnel.

I think this photograph is sign of our times. For one, more people than ever before in Los Angeles are considering public transportation as their way to work and around our fair city. Secondly, and more philosophically, many people need a good old silver lining to look forward to right now. Many people need some light at the end of a tunnel. So, thanks, Rick, for giving us just that.
