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 […]

Saturday night I attended the Berkshire Scenic Railway Museum’s night shoot. This was the 4th year that they’ve done it, and as with the previous three times, I lent a hand and Steve Barry from Railfan & Railroad did the lighting. Things started out a little iffy with torrential downpours, […]
I had to go down to New Jersey again for work this week – but this time it was only for a few days. Still, like usual, the camera bag came along for the ride. Here’s some of what I shot on Monday evening.
I had made plans with Nick Palazini to try and do a little shooting along PanAm Railway’s District 3 and 4 on Saturday night. Hopefully we would catch something along the way. Our plans started out as meeting up at East Deerfield and playing it by ear from there. Of […]

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 […]
Yesterday was another less than stellar weather day. But like usual, that doesn’t stop me from going out to shoot when I can. After work I decided to head west to a new spot for me – Phillipsburg, NJ, which is home to the Phillipsburg Railroad Historians‘ museum near the […]
