I had to head up to the Hellenic Study Center at UConn in Storrs tonight to check out their computers for the Conficker worm before the trigger date tomorrow. While I was up there, I figured I’d do a little night photography around the grounds, including the chapel and new […]

Like usual, I’m a bit behind on postings. So I’ll take advantage of a little time over lunch to bang out the two posts waiting in the queue. First up is a quick chase of New England Central train NERWPA (the Willimantic to Palmer turn) between Eagleville, CT and Monson, […]
I had been trying to get out the past few nights to head out to Plainville, CT and shoot one of the PanAm painted GP40s that works down this way. Well, finally things came together, and I headed out last night with Bob LaMay and Nick Palazini for the evening. […]
OK, here’s post three of three – this one is from yesterday. And like Tuesday, it takes place at Stoddard Cove in Ledyard. This time, though, the timing wasn’t as nice – this time there was no room for error.
OK, two of three – this time it took place at Stoddard Cove in Ledyard, and the usual suspect of Providence & Worcester train NR-2. But because of the magic of technology, I was able to get two angles of the train at pretty much the same time – basically […]

Yep, more night stuff, and like Saturday night, it was a last-minute decision to do. At the CERM meeting on Sunday night, one of the members mentioned that there was an NECR train tied down in the Willimantic yard. Well, I was kicking myself for not bringing my camera & […]
Took advantage of the sunshine this morning, hoping to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 on my walk. This time I decided to mix things up a bit, and head a little further north to Stoddard Hill Park on the north side of Ledyard. Well, things didn’t go as planned, […]
OK, last one to catch up on! This was after the snowstorm – which lasted from Sunday night until Monday night (don’t ask about pictures during the storm – that was a fiasco!). And the sun was shining bright on Tuesday, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to catch […]
More catching up. Back on March 1st, we had a nice little snowstorm that dumped about 10″ of the white stuff on us. As it was kicking off on Sunday night, I headed out to see how shooting in the snow with the Lumedyne would work out. My target was […]
