Photographing a Test Train on HS1 in any kind of light is a hard thing to do. Eurotunnel have the contract to haul them with their Krupps Locomotives and they always go out at night after the last Eurostar and are back home before daylight. This one was booked back at D Moor at 0447 but I watched it on RTT during the night and it was running 30 minutes late which meant its seen here about 0510 in the morning with just enough light amongst the mist to record 0004 & 0003 on the 2312 D Moor to D Moor test train with it running up to Stratford International twice up HS1.Seen here dropping down the Freight Chord to D Moor at the end of its long night.

67008 is seen at Dorrington working 3A07, a Cardiff Canton – Crewe Carriage Sidings test working, prior to the Marches loco hauled services having a fifth coach in the consist.

The first shot taken with a new lens is always pochiko. She is my best partner!

  

Trying some different color balances. Strobist: AB B1600 with 20 deg. grid from right front, SB 800 with Roscolux Sun filter on the background.

After checking the weather for days, on Thursday morning June, 29 I decided to head east as weather forecasts were showing it was the only direction with a chance of good weather.

 

Riding with me that day was my mother who was visiting for the week and my wife. It was out the door at 5 AM, and eastbound we headed. All week long the smoke from the Canadian wildfires had been chocking out any sun there had been. By Painsville, OH, we were in full sun. We eventually made it to Erie, PA.

 

With a heads up from a friend, I was informed that even though workers were striking at the Wabtec management would be out testing locomotives and off to the Erie East Commercial test track we headed.

 

Not long after arriving at the only grade crossing on the test track 4 units made a slow pass eastbound. Knowing it would not be long before they came back west and I set up for this shot.

 

Heading back west under a heavy load, at slow speed CSXT 7276 a newly rebuilt CW44AC, now a CM44AC leads GECX 2015 & 2014 both ET44AC's, and NS 7635 a ES40DC, back towards the plant.

 

The three of us hung around for 3 more passes while they kept testing the CSX and NS units as I changed photo angles.

This was my only test shot before the rain caught up with me.

 

I have 30 mins to do this and somehow I was rob of that time.

 

Maybe because frolicking in the fields with a white fabric is not weird enough. Try to imagine it trailing behind as the person runs for cover. Probably the kind where nightmares are made from.

 

Or maybe because it's a dire reminder that my camera is not waterproof and it had enough adventures these past 224++++ days.

 

I doubt.

 

Anyways, this taught me 2 things.

 

1. You really have no control of the weather whatsoever. (Trust me, I pathetically told the cloud to hold it for another extra 30 mins!!)

2. And always, always treat your test shots as real cause you never know.

 

You never know.

  

control of the contrast.

Last Tuesday's 1Q47 plain line test train is seen at Salterbeck behind 37175.

This was most definitely not the shot I had intended.

I had yet to phot' this particular 37 and knowing it was on the front of this train tempted me out, despite the so-so forecast.

At one point it was running quite early and I arrived at the location in bright sunshine and set up a rather nifty "in the landscape" shot which I hadn't done before.

Unfortunately it then became apparent that the train would end up back in its original path and that's when the cloud started rolling in.

It was then necessary to move closer to the subject as the planned shot wouldn't work in the dull.

Sod's Law that the clouds parted just enough to light the subject as it hoved into view but there was no time to get back to the original spot so I was literally well and truly shafted.

This was the Burton On Trent (Wetmore Sidings) to Carlisle, the point of origin being used in lieu of Derby R.T.C apparently due to ongoing works at the latter.

Test shot of my cellular phone "SoftBank 912T by Toshiba".

This situation may be hard to take photo by phone camera.

But it gave me a nice result.

Testing some newly wired up LEDs in the Hall grounds with Von Lodz as the model. Odd how nobody came over to ask what we were doing. It was almost as if they thought we were peculiar folk up to dubious shenanigans.

 

To prove I'm not a *total* sooc snob, this one has been RAW converted.

Another test from the other night, will be doing my first real shoot on the backdrop tomorrow, should be interesting!

Testing stacked 2x + 1.4x teleconverters (1400mm equivalent), results are okay at best...Still fun to try!

This pair have been running test trains up and down the Midland Mainline for the past week.

 

810003 and 810004 head south on 5Q42 Sheffield to Leicester

Ultimately, this was just a test shot with my new Canon 90D in order to configure with ISO settings and all that in low light to dark conditions based on how the camera would perform under such circumstances. Not too bad and a vast improvement compared to the Canon T3.

Thank you for your comments & Fav.!

Deze opname is een test met/van 5 verschillende foto's "met telkens een andere scherptediepte" over elkaar, om zo te proberen om met f 4 toch de bloem zo scherp mogelijk te krijgen.

 

This image is a test with/of 5 different photos "with a different depth of field" about each other, so to try to f 4 yet the flower as sharp as possible.

testing some new colors on a test girl ^_^
