in May of 2005 a Northbound BNSF train decends Union Pacic trackage at the famous Tehachapi Loop. the head is in between crossings of the Caliente Creek while the rest of it's train is on the loop. when I first began shooting trains I focused too much on the train...over the next couple of years my intent focused on the entire scene. sometimes it works when the train is the main focus.

"Photography is a craft that is acquired over many years!"
And the camera is only the tool!
When not 'dictated' by a client, I take images that come out of my brain, the birth of the idea, the development of it, my vision and the creation, my enjoyment and the challenge, the hype and the anticipation, the struggle and disappointment of the failures, the gathering of your courage to try again... the stamina, the madness some love to call passion?
The playing with light, to me, the ultimate high, I don't need anything else. Once the image is there, I'm content, and if it 'inspires' others, releases an emotion, that's wonderful!
And I've seen how my photos have 'inspired' many!
I'm not stupid to think that everybody is going to like, let alone understand my image, but I can easily live with that, because I do not have that expectation!
I, in the first place, have to be happy with it, the quality, the composition, EVERYTHING, it has to be immaculate, I have to stand by it 100% or the outside world will NEVER see it!
That goes for my pro AND my free work (what you see here).
I wouldn't have it any other way.
I hope that you enjoyed my 'rave'?
Take care, all the best and above all... enjoy your photography.
If the day comes I don't enjoy it anymore... I'll GIVE AWAY all my gear (it's a lot, gathered over the years, please don't hold your breath, heeeee), M, (*_*)

A time lapse of Q693 and Q694 traversing a section of the Loops, as viewed from the North Cove Overlook of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
8:32PM- photograph began as Q693 rounds the bend near the center of the picture and continues toward the bottom right (railroad south), crossing Peppers Creek at Camp Two in the area of red light. A car's headlight traveling Peppers Creek Rd can also be seen intersecting the railroad at the crossing.
9:07PM- Q694 rounds the bend midway through Rocky (where Q693 is waiting) on the mountainside to the far left of the photo. They will continue toward the bottom of the photograph (railroad north) and are beginning the swing back around the reversal curve towards Camp Two just to the left of bottom center 7 minutes later.
9:40PM- After Q694 makes their way around by Little Switzerland, they emerge from Pine Ridge Tunnel in the area directly above the Camp Two Crossing and continue toward the far right side of the photograph (railroad north) towards Ridge Tunnel.
The streaks in the upper right hand corner are cars traveling the Blue Ridge Parkway. The orange light and open area just below that is the Orchard at Altapass. The very bright orange area on the left side of the photograph is the trailer drop lot for Baxter. All the lights in the far background would be Woodlawn on into Marion.
Nous Vous - 'Fresh Ones’ at Loop Arts Fair
For our part in Loop we set up painting studio under our ‘Fresh Ones’ banner. Alongside our fast becoming standard product range we scoured Leeds for rogue bits of wood, got some recycled paint and made spontaneous paintings over the two days.
This is one of my paintings.
It is still for sale, £50, get in touch if you're interested.
SKYE Suites Building Green Square, Sydney. This striking Koichi Takada-designed Infinity building is curvaceous and looped, and with a hole piercing right through the middle.
Empty coal from Fairbanks loops around the loud out at Healy and through the unique loader. Once spotted the crew will run around the train and load going north to use the Mac's pace setter.
The Georgetown Loop train makes its away around its famous looped bridge, rising above the Colorado mountain forest.
Starting with a pano-sabotage shot of two of me reflected in a car window, processed with a kaleidoscope filter and various other enhancements. I'm still going around the loop!

Work in progress on the Bury Loop line reinstatement to give trains access to the new Bury Interchange. The line is now used by Metrolink trams.

Too many days like this:
wake up> working> consume> sleeping
Ciclo continuo
Troppi giorni come questi: sveglia> lavorare> consumare> dormire
Explored thanks to all!!!!! ^__^
I was alot happier with this photo when I took it than I am now. There is no great way to photograph a train winding around the entire Tehachapi Loop. And even here damn near the shortest day of the year there is about a 1 hour window of nice, pure light between when the light is on the entire loop and when the light washes out in mid-day color. Luckily at the beginning of the window an eastbound could be heard from my perch. GE's can be a half mile away from you on the PRR over the hill before they are heard but even with the sound of the highway these bitches could be heard about 20 minutes out. There is absolutely no train photo that does this area justice. It's really amazing to think they move freight trains through here. You gotta see this.
Thanks to the Lighthouse Keeper (Tom McInerney) for putting on ALL the lights for me. I got talking to him and he asked if I would send him a photo of the lighthouse. I asked him for his email address and he said he did not have one but could I post him one. No problem I said, but if you want a really nice photo then, the more lights that are on the better. No problem, he said, when do you want them on, and off he went ......
