So the weather’s been crappy lately, but as usual that never stopped me from getting out and shooting. And this time of year, the colors are just starting to peak down in southeastern Connecticut, so even cloudy gloomy days are somewhat colorful. And boy were Tuesday and Wednesday pretty cloudy […]

Quite the day today turned out to be. It started out under sunny blue skies, with some changing foliage along the Thames River, and ended in the dark, with some more of that nice New England color. But that ending also had a piece of Florida in the picture – […]
My last evening in the Garden State (Wednesday 10/7/09) was quite eventful – it started out at the NJ Transit Bound Brook station where I was able to catch NS, CSX, Conrail & NJ Transit action, then moved down to the New Hope & Ivyland at night, and concluded with […]
Well, I’m down in New Jersey again for work, and like usual the cameras came along for the ride. Yesterday, I was able to get out after checking into the hotel and catch some action. But I never would have thought I’d catch the Providence & Worcester down here in […]
Well, I’ll be doing things a little out of order here. I’ve got some shots from the last week or two that I need to process and get online, but in the meantime, I’ve got some stuff from yesterday that’s ready to go. So that’s what you get to look […]

This past Saturday June 13th was the 6th Annual Night Photo Shoot at the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum in Willimantic. We had to top last year’s shoot, which included the use of the turntable in a number of shots. This year the volunteers came through again, and kicked things up […]
