Happy New Year everyone! To kick off 2013 I’m posting the final installment of my 2012 Photo Recap. This edition solely contains my night work on the Valley Railroad as they were running their hugely popular North Pole Express trains in the months of November and December. And to celebrate the new year, I’ve selected [...]

I had to make another trip down to NJ last week for work – of course the cameras came along. Granted, it was a shorter trip – only three days as opposed to the usual full week, so time to get out and shoot was limited, but I did manage to shoot a little. And [...] Now time to start making up some ground on the post landscape. Starting on November 25, 2011 the Valley Railroad began running their popular – and often sold out – North Pole Express trains. Because of their popularity, they had planned on running two steam-powered trains at the same time each night – one with [...] In the spirit of the holiday season, I’ve decided to do something a bit different. I’ve put together a poster featuring one of my night shots of the Valley Railroad’s newest addition to their roster – former Knox & Kane Chinese built SY 2-8-2, now dressed up to look like a New Haven J-1, and [...] On the second day of my New Jersey work trip, I got out a couple times to shoot – first at sunrise, and then after sunset. The shots at sunrise were in the Garden State, and the ones in the dark were 60 some odd miles to the west in the Keystone State – both [...] And on to part 2 of three of my last business trip to New Jersey. For this one, the shots were taken on one day – some in the morning before work, and some in the evening after work. And for this one, I covered both the Garden and Keystone States, getting Norfolk Southern action [...] Last Friday was a pretty good day, photographically speaking. I ended up taking the day off from work for a couple reasons – first, later in the evening I was putting on a presentation about the railroads along the Thames River for the Northeast Prototype Modeler’s Meet out in Collinsville, CT (BTW, if you’re a [...] Last month I had to make a trip down to New Jersey for work again. And as I mentioned in my last post about an evening in Rensselaer, I’ve finally gotten around to posting the shots. So instead of doing each day as a single post, I’m going to lump them all together into one [...] A little more than a month ago I was down in New Jersey again for work – a pretty uneventful week, with some photos taken (I’ll get ‘em up here soon, I promise). On my second to last day there, I got an email from a friend about a special guest that would be up [...] Starting in the end of November and all through December I managed to get down to Essex and shoot the Valley Railroad’s North Pole Express trains a number of times. With the early winter sunsets, all of these trains ran under cover of darkness, which gave me an opportunity to experiment with my lighting techniques. [...] |
