It was really starting to cloud over making the stars less visible. Oh well, it was a fun night even though my toes were freezing.

Welcome back, Orion! Changing seasons means the winter constellations are returning. This stacked photograph was taken with a Canon R5, 400m lens, and 1.4 teleconverter on an iOptron Skyguider Pro.
A loaded ore train returns to Braddock, Pa as seen from the famous Westinghouse bridge.
This shot is a result of an effort to include railfanning with my trucking career resulting in finding a convenient parking spot for my layover about a ten minute walk from this location.
Algunos pensaréis que he volteado la foto, pues no, es la costumbre que a veces tiene el gato de girar la cabeza y así lo capté.
Gracias a todos por visitar mi galería, por vuestros favoritos y comentarios.
An ore train dumps on Dock 6 while limestone loads with 2449 head up the ramp from Missabe Junction to Collingwood.
Union Pacific SD40-2 “snoot” No. 3249 pulls a train of 100-ton iron ore hoppers through Spanish Fork, Utah the morning of Feb. 21, 1988. The OGVCM originated at Geneva Steel and will reload at Comstock on the Iron Mountain Branch west of Cedar City, Utah.
Orion is getting higher in the sky at the moment, so this is an early non HDR edit, more data will hopefully be added to this over summer. 135mm Sigma at f/2, D810A, 600 second subs, processed in APP and Photoshop.
The Orion Nebula can be seen with the naked eye in dark skies and is located in the belt of the Orion constellation.
This image actually consists of several catalogued objects including:
M42 the Great Orion Nebula
M43/NGC 1982 de Mairan's Nebula
NGC 1977 the Running Man Nebula
The Trapezium cluster
Technical stuff:
iOptron CEM70 mount
Canon 7D Mark II (ISO1600) + Canon EF 600mm f4 L IS II (f4)
Optolong L-Pro filter
Primaluce 60mm guidescope + ZWO ASI290MC
Capture software: APT + PHD2
25 mins of 2 minute exposures + 20 10 second exposures (blended in PS)
Stacked in DSS
Processed in Photoshop + Topaz Denoise
The Horsehead and Flame Nebulae and surrounds in Orion. This is more data added to an existing shot I had and processed a little differently. 10 minute shots, Nikon D810A, Sigma Art 135mm at f/2, ISO200, mounted to a Celestron CGEM2 EQ mount, guided by PHD2, camera and mount control with APT, stacking and integration and star reduction in APP, final edit in Photoshop. I used a few 60 second shots for a bit of HDR on the Orion nebula. I also got overlapping panels surrounding this frame with the intention of getting a bit more of a flat field for this view but these shots could not be integrated in APP for some reason, I kept getting errors after hours of processing so in the end I didn't use any of those shots at all!
BHP SD70Ace locos 4334,4350 lead a loaded Iron ore train around the curves between Shaw and Garden with 4381,4416 being the mid train locos on 21-6-15
A beautiful evening sky last night! Shot with my Canon 7D and a 50mm 1.8. Applied a Star Spikes filter in PS after the fact. In the future I'm going to play around with fog filters when shooting stars to get a better approximation of what the human eye sees!
If you see closely at the stars in Orion's Belt this is what they look like
Well at least for me
A guy pulling a heart
How cool isn't that
Love is in the air :D
I obviously had a nice night walk in the moonshine this evening, except for Aiko pulling the leash every time I should shoot
No wonder there is a man in the moon, lol
A lucky opening in the clouds illuminates a loaded all-rail train beginning its decent on Steelton Hill. This train loaded at Minntac on the DM&IR and was headed for U.S. Steel's Fairfield mill near Birmingham, Alabama. That mill has since closed its blast furnace, this ending moves of ore from Minnesota to Birmingham.
