OK...most railfans and photographers go to great lengths to avoid light flares from the headlight of a locomotive. And most photography books counsel you to eliminate light flares.
But sometimes, you just gotta roll with it and enjoy the interesting look that they give an image.

It was abstract to begin with, but I nudged it further with soft focus and some tone work. HSS!

The first-generation Ford F-Series is a series of pickup trucks and commercial vehicles produced by Ford. Introduced in late 1947, the F-Series was the first post-war truck design from Ford. The first generation of the F-Series would remain in production until 1952. F-Series trucks were assembled at sixteen different Ford factories. Serial numbers indicate the truck model, engine, year, assembly plant, and unit number. The most common model was the F-1 with a 6 ½-foot bed followed by the F-2 and F-3 Express models with an 8-foot (2.4 m) bed. The first F-Series truck (known as the Ford Bonus-Built) was introduced in late 1947 (went on sale January 16, 1948) as a replacement for the pre-War designed Ford trucks. It had a flat, one-piece windshield and integrated headlamps. It had a wider cab. Options included the "See-Clear" windshield washer (operated by foot plunger), passenger-side windshield wiper & sun visor, and passenger-side taillight. The F-1 truck was also available with additional chrome trim and two horns as an option. All F-series were available with optional "Marmon-Herrington All Wheel Drive" until 1959. Design of the F-Series truck changed tremendously from 1950 to 1954. From 1948 to 1950, the grill was a series of horizontal bars and the headlights were set into the fenders. For 1951 and 1952, the headlights were connected by a wide aerodynamic cross piece with three similarly aerodynamic supports. The rear window was wider in these later trucks and the dashboard was redesigned. This new cab was called the "Five-Star Cab".

I couldn't resist to go to this lighthouse (and eat lobsters) if I had a chance to go to Maine. This was from my recent trip to New England early this month
57603 'Tintagel Castle' gently propels the coaching stock for the overnight 2145 Penzance to London Paddington sleeper towards Penzance station on 10th June 2024.
I had expected this train to be hauled into Penzance station and was expecting to shoot the train being hauled.
Unfortunately the train locomotive now propels the 2km into Penzance station from Long Rock depot, so I had to settle for this 'going away' view.
Penzance station (and that evening's 2015 train to Plymouth) is visible on the far left. The glinting body of water is part of Mount's Bay, shimmering on this still June evening.
I have digitally turned the locomotive's tail lights off and turned on the headlights.

The headlight on the beautiful Duesenberg recreation at the Petersen Automotive Museum provided me with a selfie.

Weir Point in Manteo, North Carolina. Long exposure captured car headlights reflecting off Albemarle Sound.
Like a location scout, I often revisit the exact same place months apart if I like the vantage point or composition it offers but dislike my results so far.
That is why I found myself assembling a tripod on Telegraph Hill in San Francisco near midnight, with a car behind me blaring exceedingly romantic country and latin pop to all passersby.
This photo took a lot of patience and good timing, as I waited for one or two cars to complete their trip down Lombard Street within my exposure window, as I wanted to capture one continuous set of electric s-curves down the entire length of the curvy street.
LENS: Minox 35mm Color Minotar f/2.8 (old lens stripped from an old Minox 35mm film camera.) An adapter to mount this lens on micro 4/3 cameras was made by DAG.
CAMERA: Olympus E-PM1.
Probably well known but playing around, I found this headlight / '1x2 with 1x2 raised bracket' combo. Works nicely for offsetting a SNOT position inwards without having to take the brick work back a stud.
