Mrs. Krach and I traveled to visit with friends up in Darlington, Maryland. I usually go past this pretty cemetery on my way to Conowingo Dam to capture the eagles that migrate in this time of year.
I have always wanted to stop and take some captures there, but always in a hurry to get to the Dam. Today it rained most of the day, but towards the late afternoon the winds really picked up and the storm skies started to clear. As we headed towards the small town of Darlington, the sunset colors were beginning. I made the decision to stop in at the cemetery at sunset, a quick stop before we went to the party (which was fun also).
Was treated to some great colors in the sky, colors that like shown here really went into theme well with the colors in the pretty trees there.
A magnificent railway clock hangs on a cast-iron bracket on platform 4 of Darlington station in County Durham. Clocks like this one were vital to standardise time-keeping for the rail companies and passengers. In times gone by, the clock would be checked and wound every week.
The last bit of sunlight as it vanished back in the west on this view looking northeast across the farmland in Darlington, Maryland ... not far from Conowingo and all the eagles :)
Heading towards blue hour, the sun has set and the pretty clouds were still displaying some nice color over the farmland of peaceful Harford County.
When the standard Fleetline single deck became unavailable, Darlington's purchases became very varied. Representing the Pennine bodied Seddon RU's is 61 (WHN 461M), seen here near the clock tower bound for Hummersknott Estate on route 3B
Although there was still plenty of snow on the hills, a rapid thaw at lower levels put a strain on the local streams.
I chased 557's train west to Calamine this day and wanted to try a shot at Darlington on his return east. The film developer put two nasty colored stripes in this roll of film, so I didn't care for this shot. I'm learning Photoshop, however, and removed them.
Darlington station, along with many others with an overall roof, often provides some lovely lighting opportunities. Just wish I'd come here more often!
