Yesterday afternoon (Thursday, October 8, 2020), I set up at the Gateway at Crawford Notch to photograph Conway Scenic’s Mountaineer.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been focusing on this train to make publicity photos for advertising, social media, etc.
The sky above the White Mountains was a turmoil of clouds.
Shortly before the train departed Crawford Station eastbound, the sun peaked through a hole in the clouds and brightly illuminated the train against this textured sky.
I was lucky, and later in the day this effect was repeated at Bartlett.

I’ll save that view for a later posting.
