Most of last week I was in New Jersey again, and with the limited daylight this time of year provides, most of my shooting was either at dusk or in the dead of the night. My first shots were on a cloudy Tuesday evening just before I checked into the […]
The Essex Steam Train is putting on a “Fright Train” this year – a Halloween themed train ride from Essex up to Chester and back. On the first night it ran, I decided to try something new – using the Lumedyne at dusk instead of in the darkness as I usually do. […]
After my slideshow at the Amherst Railway Society, I decided to spend the night up in Amherst instead of driving home in the wee hours. And since I was taking Wednesday off from work as well, I figured I could take a ride over to North Grafton, MA and see […]
