Saturday Self Challenge
The next challenge will be "Anything glass in B&W". Glass can be a challenge to photograph, especially in black and white. It involves careful lighting to capture detail and definition. Anything made of clear glass can be used as your subject. No colour photos please, only black and white.
This weeks challenge was a lot more of a struggle than I imagined it would be. I’ve photographed many glass objects and not one has been to my liking. I did have one shot that I thought would do, the best of a bad bunch, but that ended up being deleted along with all the others.
I was outside talking to our neighbour when I happened to glance at our car, a lightbulb moment occurred (excuse the pun) when I looked at one of the front headlamp units. I think our neighbour must have thought I was crazy when I rushed inside, grabbed the camera then crouched on the path a few feet away from the car to get some shots. She never said anything but there was a strange look on her face.
At last a shot that I’m reasonably happy with for this week. I just hope it fits the bill.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
I showed up real early in the morning at the Portland Headlight to get some of the good light. The park entrance was still locked when I got there, so I waited in the lot for the gate to open. As I waited, I had the chance to make friends with a fellow photographer, who had the same idea...
The headlights of a car caught in the light.
A couple of odd photos that I've taken for the photo for the day, but something else came up and replaced them.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)

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.
KTE WDG-3A # 13033 stands at Nishatpura freight yard with its powerful headlights and markers on,other locos present were MLY WDM-2,ET WAG-5 duo,BRC WAG-5 Duo and ET WDS-6.
I struggled to think what I do to relax - ended up with listening to music via my headphones (to tune the world out!).
Maybe I should take some inspiration from others in the groups with so many great shots of how people relax.
HMM
Before I forget that: Happy new year to all you lovely people out there!
