LOMO Belomo 120mm f/1.8 Petzval

I should probably have someone cut a corner off my railfan card for shooting the DPU’s of a loaded coal train.

 

I should probably have someone burn my railfan card for shooting these ugly crapstain SD70MAC’s painted in that hideous b&n paint.

 

But I know some of you out there get all excited about these ugly things so I figured why not waste a few electrons as the sun slipped behind a cloud?

 

Matched BNSF lettered SD70MAC’s shoving on the rear of a loaded coal train at West Armour passing the searchlights that are still there for now.

A macro view of two stormproof matches and their reflections. Each match head measures approximately 4mm in diameter.

 

Strobist info:

The image was illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights placed 80° CL/CR, two-feet away from and 16-inches above the subjects. The speedlights were fired in Manual mode @ full power through Neewer 24" x 24" soft boxes.

 

The SB900's were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X's.

Macro Mondays: Perfect Match

Wisconsin Central T040 was doing its thing on a nice sunny morning in 2000. The daily parade of SD45s on the Chicago Subdivision was a nice reliable way to expose some chromes back in the day.

 

The 6640 was built by EMD in 1966 for the Santa Fe and made its way to the WC in the mid-1990's and after the Canadians took over in 2001, the 6640 was kicked to the curb. I suspect it is no longer amongst the living.

There are some tens of bun cases, made of thin paper, all identical in shape and in the same colours' sequence

I love a good red wine with chocolate - the perfect match. This pinot noir by Love Noir is my current favorite red wine. HMM, everyone ! !

Amtrak's Southwest Chief had just departed Fort Madison and was approaching the Mississippi River crossing on a cloudy day in 1995.

 

When Amtrak used equipment that matched, it looked pretty nice. Unfortunately, when Amtrak decided to go with that bland Phase V paint on their locomotives, the equipment no longer matched the power.

After severely punishing my husband yesterday, I thought I would tease him a little at our dinner party - by wearing this see-through blouse and mini-skirt! My hubby knows that he is only allowed to look, not touch - except with my express permission, which is not easily won!

 

The dinner party itself was a lot of fun. Arrangements were made for a number of our Sodality Ladies to make their US internet debuts with Peter Gunn's Florida-based adult website. Janis Rawdyke, PHD, author of "Dressed to Castrate", is planning to accompany my girls on their trip to the USA and chronicle their Peter Gunn video shoots, for one of the UK's leading Sunday newspapers. Janis's trip is being funded as research by her university's Department of Women's Studies (of which she is the Head). It seems that our kind of lifestyle is becoming ever more mainstream these days...

 

After dinner, I spent a very enjoyable hour or so with Shirley, our plump Lady Mayoress, in Lyndon Towers' well-equipped dungeon. I am now contemplating turning Shirley over to my housekeeper, Mrs Danvers, to use for her pleasure. I think they were made for each other!!!!

 

Love and Kises to All My Friends and Fans!
