Although there is a lot of planning involved in my trips there are also a lot of things that happen spontaneously. I have become very efficient and can now shoot at 3 locations in a one hour window. During my drive between locations I spotted these two Ocotillo's standing like a field goal with the Milky Way in between the posts. Though the shot was perfectly composed I had a trick lighting up both Ocotillo's evenly. Eventually I figured painting each of them for 6 seconds each then filling the foreground with a second of light would be even lighting all around. This is an example of how I teach myself lighting techniques. Trial and error.

 

The composition is stronger than most of my pieces in the portfolio because this features two elements with different framing. It also demonstrates that I am able to light a variety of scenes.

My son's teammate celebrating his goal save this morning. Fun was had by all. We never pay attention to the score and as long as the kids are running, we're happy...

He shoots he scores...

One of my major goals for this mini trip was to photograph a freight train crossing Amtrak’s Susquehanna River Bridge at Perryville. This impressive structure is a signature piece of infrastructure and one of the scenic highlights along the entirety of the Northeast Corridor. Opened in may 1906 by the Pennsylvania Railroad the 4153 ft long double track Howe deck truss bridge features an approximately 265 ft center swing span that increases the nominal clearance from 52 ft to 127 ft for maritime traffic. This is the largest movable bridge on the Northeast Corridor and as a significant bottleneck to Amtrak with plans in the works for a replacement pending the availability of the over $1 billion needed for the project. To learn more check out this link: nec.amtrak.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Amtrak_RTB_Susq...

 

The 115 year old bridge is itself a replacement for a wooden single track bridge opened in 1866 by the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore Railroad with iron reinforcements added between 1874 and 1880. The piers for that first bridge remain prominently visible just down stream of the present Amtrak structure. But even that original bridge was itself a replacement for the railcar ferries that operated across the river for the first 29 years after the railroad first opened in 1837. So whenever the fourth generation of rail crossings becomes a reality it will continue a two century long tradition of improvement and expansion of the rail infrastructure. But for now, I wanted to revel in the glory of this marvelous structure harkening back to the days when the mighty Pennsy proclaimed itself the Standard Railroad of the World.

 

I've already shared some shots taken from the northeast side of the bridge in Perryville, well here are a few from the southeast side that offers so many angles. One of the most popular places to shoot and just watch trains is from the outside deck of the Tidewater Grille restaurant. While the freights were the main draw the bridge hosts a diverse variety of passenger trains with high speed Acelas mingling with Amtrak regional and long distance trains and MARC Penn Line commuters. One can see why it is a confounding bottleneck with the volume of trains squeezing through here and once again the old truism holds up: the things that are coolest for railfanning are the worst for the business of railroading!

 

Anyway, here is Norfolk Southern train 590 (unit coal train Shire Oaks, PA to Consol terminal Baltimore) stepping out over the river right after the Acela cleared.

. . . remembering to put foreground in my landscape images.

In the previous photo I said that the goal umpire decides whether a goal or a behind has been scored. You can see him in a blue shirt and cap here watching intently to decide which side of the posts the ball has travelled. In this case it was a goal, and so he signals this to the goal umpire at the other end of the ground by waving his two white flags (one flag for a behind). Although the scoreboards keep tally of the score, the goal umpires are officially the keepers of the score, and at the end of each quarter they check their cards to see no error has been made.
