Tracking the Light Posts New Photos Every Day!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Metro-North and the State of Connecticut have received 405 M8 electric cars from Kawasaki.\u00a0These now dominate commuter operations on the New Haven Line.<\/p>\n

On Sunday November 8, 2015, I spent the day making photos underwire, and exposed many\u00a0detailed digital photos of the new electrics using my FujiFilm X-T1.<\/p>\n

These cars are unique to Metro-North\u2019s electrified New Haven Line suburban trains. Yet, after a few hours, they can get a bit repetitive.<\/p>\n

My challenge was remaining interested in the subject, while searching from new angles and new ways to portray the cars on the move.<\/p>\n

Which of these photographs is your favorite?<\/p>\n
