It\u2019s been a long time since the old tower at the west-end of Pan Am Southern\u2019s former Boston & Maine yard served as intended. Yet it survives as a landmark and lends to the heritage of the place. I\u2019ve photographed this building many times over the years; by day, by night, by sun, and in the fog. This Monday evening (January 21, 2013), I exposed a few time exposures during a snow-squall. The lightly falling snow diffused the light from the yard making for an eerie glow\u2014a quality of light well suited to night-photography. Finding a focus-point in the dark was a challenge, as was remaining out in the frosty evening while the camera exposed the photos.<\/p>\n
