One of the discussion groups I’m on has been talking about night photography lately. That discussion prompted me to go through my stuff and pick out some of what I thought were my better images taken between dusk and dawn – both using artificial (flash or flashlight) and natural (ambient) […]

A few days old, but finally here it is. This past Saturday Bob LaMay & I put on the fifth annual Night Photo Shoot at the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum in Willimantic. Well, it almost didn’t happen because of the heavy thunderstorms that were rolling through the area on Saturday […]
I took a ride out tonight after everyone was to bed, with my sights set on getting a shot of the last northbound TriRail commuter train of the night through Deerfield Beach station. I figured I should get some commuter trains while I’m down here. If you don’t know, TriRail […]
Well, the work schedule down here is allowing me to get a bit of railfanning in. I would have been out yesterday, but something got in the way – a freaking flat tire! Yep, I got a flat on my way out of work yesterday, so I had to find […]
Well, I’m down here in New Jersey for work this week. Of course, my camera bag came along for the ride. Since today was a travel day, I did a bit of scouting around…well, with an agenda in mind. Nearby where I’m staying, there’s a GG-1 undergoing restoration. So that […]
Busy times around the office lately. Still settling in from my recent office move, and things are picking up. So I didn’t get a chance to head out the past couple days and catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2. But I did get out Tuesday to catch NR-2 up in […]

The Providence & Worcester railroad recently moved their interchange with the New England Central from New London to Willimantic, CT. Up until now, the interchange was worked by the P&W with extras from Plainfield, 3-4 times a week, running at various times of the day. As of Sunday January 6, […]
Yep, more jack-o-lanterns. But this time I didn’t have to carve ’em! On our way home from trick or treating tonight, we stopped by R-Farm here in Lebanon. They have a tradition of carving up all the leftover pumpkins into a variety of jack-o-lanterns, then stringing them up with lights […]
Ahhh, beautiful scenery, nearly perfect weather, and trains running at your will. No, this isn’t some elaborate layout, instead it’s the real thing – but this time the photographers were running around in the dark also. This past Saturday was the 2nd Annual Berskshire Scenic Railway Museum Night Photo Shoot […]
