Just a word or few on this blog:<\/p>\n
For more than three years I\u2019ve made an effort to post something new, each and every<\/strong> day.<\/p>\n
If you are not already subscribed, have you considered subscribing? There is no cost: the primary advantage\u00a0to a subscription is that an automatic notice is sent out with each and every post. This is more reliable than feeds via Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus, and even my own Email notices.<\/p>\n
I prepare posts in advance and put them in a queue on Word Press. I\u2019ll assign to each posting a date and a time when it is supposed to appear on the web.<\/p>\n
Sometimes owing to a technical fault, posts\u00a0may\u00a0miss its scheduled\u00a0posting time. When that happens, I have to manipulate the system and post manually. (Post is both a noun a verb).<\/p>\n
I like to keep the site timely, but it\u2019s not intended as an up to the minute news source.<\/p>\n
Although I\u00a0often write daily, I tend plan post schedules so that photos \u00a0appear several days after I make them. This is by intent.<\/p>\n
That said, sometimes when I find something of immediate interest (such as Monday’s IWT Liner), I\u2019ll make an effort to get the subject out there quickly for public consumption. (Thus Tracking the Light\u2019s \u2018Extra Posts\u2019).<\/p>\n
In other situations, I\u2019ll capture\u00a0something unique\u00a0(or at least very unusual)\u00a0but opt\u00a0to hold that back for future presentation.<\/p>\n
For every photo I\u2019ve displayed on Tracking the Light, I have dozens more waiting for their day in the sun (metaphorically). The very best have yet to be seen!<\/p>\n
For the next few days I\u2019ll be traveling and may not have regular access to the internet. As a result, Tracking the Light will be coasting\u00a0\u2018autopilot.\u2019<\/p>\n
This means, I’ve placed a large batch of posts in the queue so that you should see something every day while I\u2019m on the road.<\/p>\n
If\u00a0for some reason, a post misses its posting time, I may not be in a position to fix it right away.<\/p>\n
Fear not, new material is being exposed! On digital, and with film.<\/p>\n
Stay tuned!<\/p>\nAn Amtrak Empire Service train led by a dual-mode GE Genesis diesel makes for a modern silhouette along the Hudson at Castleton, New York in 2004. Exposed on Fujichrome using a Contax G2 rangefinder with 28mm Zeiss Biogon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
