Over the years I\u2019ve made a lot of photos at the Palmer diamond, where CSX (ex Conrail, nee Boston & Albany and etc) crosses New England Central (ex Central Vermont.) at grade.<\/p>\n

The other day I decided to take a completely new angle on this well-photographed spot and I set my camera to monochrome (ex black & white) with a red filter adjustment (applied digitally and is among the Fuji X-T1 preset \u2018color profiles\u2019) then set the camera to make a panoramic composite.<\/p>\n

I hold the shutter button down and sweep the camera laterally, the camera automatically exposes a burst of images and then sews them together internally. In this case, I set the sweep from right to left.<\/p>\n

Fuji X-T1 panoramic composite. This is a digitally combined image made from more than two dozen photos exposed in rapid succession and stitched together in-camera.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you look carefully, there\u2019s a stationary New England Central GP38 on the north-side of the diamond crossing.<\/p>\n

This is essentially the same type of function\/option now offered by many smart phones. However, I\u2019m exposing the images using my Fujinon 18-135mm lens (which allows me to set the focal length of the pan) and the end file is about a 17mb JPG, which produces fairly detailed image.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll post more panoramic composites over the coming days\/months.<\/p>\n
