Signals in the dark..catfish in the light

[E.M. Bell]

I posted a few news shots in the Central Div board about the changes going on around Burnside. Another goal for us was to try a few night shots of some of the remaining older style signal bridges.  I played around with a few, but really didnt get much I liked except for a couple. We will have to go back when I am less tired, and more creative and try this again. Like many things on the CNO&TP, these wont be around much longer, and I want to shoot them every which way I can.

Nice shots E.M. Bell, I've never seen anyone attempt a f.r.e.d. shot like that before!

Thanks..but to tell the whole truth, that shot is just a cropped failure on my part. It was SUPPOSED to have the signals in it...and it did...somewhat well lit...and very very out of focus. In a feeble attempt to salvage something I cropped the crap out of it and there ya go....

as Paul Harvey would say...now you know the REST of the story

Haha the rest of the story! I used to listen to him all the time! But concerning the photo, I give it a 5/5 rating. A cropped failure! Nonsense! To me, that was an original shot.

All my photography goes into capturing the last of blue, you know about 15 conrails I caught this year have been repainted! I wish they'd slow down a bit... sad to see my childhood railroad go. I'm more in the video department though.

Tune in later to hear... THE rest of the story. ;D
