Jakarta Photography On Top Of The Train?

Is it a good idea to do the "Jakarta Photography" on top of the train? For a daredevil this might be a challenge. But maybe in the near future, you won't see such a train overcrowded not only by normal passengers but also the ones as you see in this photo due to comfort matter, "proper eyesight" and transport improvement initiated by the authority

Dramatic view, you can always have it when it comes to taking picture of the Jakarta commuter train, especially of the economy one like this. And your Jakarta photography activity will be great with a sophisticated camera, not with this one--a cheapest blackberry in its class.

There are a lot of unique stories go along with the speeding train. This train is a sort of worn out, but the passengers just don't care. Why? The nostalgia, many things to be remembered, from an instant romance, stubborn singing beggars and peddlars to a flock of people who dominate every corner of the car and they cannot be blamed for that. If you think this is also good angle for photography, there's nothing so interesting about the pictures. But Jakarta gives you more wild scenery only you are not too fussy to jostle with the crowd.

Just make sure, it's okay for you to do the Jakarta photography activities even if you do it on top of the train, but don't come here at the wrong time when extreme rains hit the whole city, you'll get trapped in unfriendly floods!
