1 more from tonight... this one is raw and gritty but I like it.. it was a moving train in the dark and it was about 300 yards away in this shot... this is a CP freight train heading north out of the Vaughan yard....
I've taken this photo in Reykjavik one early morning in May. I've taken a few shots and made friends with this lovely feline, but after a while he (or she) got bored, and sneaked under a billboard and left. I love this shot, and it's included in the Fujifilm House Of Photography ad in London.

I am still trying to whip these germs and not winning, so far. I felt awful for Ken's birthday yesterday. :( Awful.
It's been a busy week as I was preparing for the final exam since it is the last week of school. I took this shot during the train ride en route to Guilin. I hope I will be able to take more pictures and explore a different aspect of photography in the near future during summer vacation. But for right now, non-recent shots will have to suffice.
I used my friend's Zeiss 50mm f/1.4 for this shot and I have to admit that it was fun to use with good contrast and sharpness, even wide open!
It seems strange to be back in the land of lawns and sidewalks, alleyways and avenues, every single thing meeting up with each other with nothing wild between. Manicured beauty, there's still a chaos in the light, something to warp the edges of a straight-lined city. Morning mist on another warm day before Christmas, burning off the chill with a rising sun. Weather shapes everywhere, whether urban or rural, and I want to know what the light does to you. Parasitic or symbiotic, washed out in the sun or warmed in the boiling darkness. Chilled in the fallen snow, I've seen you rained down every drain, disappeared like nothing happened by dawn. The cars are arriving, loaded with presents as the trees are naked of leaves. I feel the brightness coming out to find me, and today at least, I'm in the business of being noticed.

But soon we discover that no place will satisfy us, and no one person, no group of friends, can meet our needs. The oppressive boredom we had hoped to escape is lodged firmly within us, and we are in danger of becoming the winnowed chaff of Psalm 1, “driven away by the wind.” If we become the straw, we have no hope of gold.

With the midday locals in Crawfordsville, we opted to chase that J771 north back into the blades. We also knew that a southbound was on duty in LaFayette. Going home would have to wait!
It was a scorcher in Indiana this afternoon as we had to kill a couple hours reading magazines and playing catch. Trainboy even flagged down a passing Schwan's truck so we could purchase an ice cream treat (great call!). Finally, the semaphores at Romney began to show life in the form of our approaching southbound.
In one of the better lit shots of the day, Q643 with the 7618 leading cruises south at MP 133.2 (Romney, IN) with a manifest for Avon. Getting the shot like this made waiting in the hot sun worth it - especially for the Chief who traded a day around Altoona for a day in Blade Country.

A sneaky video of a woman wearing a mask - I found this to be quite strange, as we do not have them in England.
As my wife and I were driving Route 23 north in Kentucky headed towards West Virginia, I noticed a train headed in our same direction. I then noticed that the lead engine was a Canadian Pacific diesel, which I've never seen one in person. I looked at my wife and pretty much just said I was going to get ahead of it and stop to take a few pictures. Thankfully the tracks pace the road for several miles along that stretch of 23, so I sped up, got to a pull-off spot and was able to get out and snap some pictures.
The train consisted of a CP lead unit in tandem with a CSX engine, and then a long line of CSX coal hoppers. I snapped a bunch of pictures and then got back in the car. We got back on the road, and of course caught back up with the train. I again told my wife I was gonna get ahead of it and try to get one more set of pics, which she excitedly encouraged. I was able to get ahead of the train again, get pulled off, and setup to take another series of pictures at a different crossing.
I know for some, these pictures may be nothing special.....but for me, it was a little slice of excitement in what was an otherwise winding down road-trip as we approached Huntington WV, and then Teays Valley WV. Getting a chance to take some of my own pictures of a CP engine, and doing a quick train chase just made for an exciting evening for both of us.
