Lumix LX7 in-camera JPG without adjustments\u2014compare with photo below.



Last weekend, while visiting Clark\u2019s Trading Post in Lincoln, New Hampshire with Lisa King, I had the opportunity to make a brief journey on a Segway two-wheel self-balancing motorized scooter.<\/em>
 <\/em>
As I balanced on the Segway, I used my Lumix LX7, to make a view of three-truck Shay-type steam locomotive lettered for the Woodstock Lumber Company and owned by Clark\u2019s railroad, the White Mountain Central.<\/em>
 <\/em>
In other words, while traveling on one relatively obscure wheeled device, I exposed a photo of another relatively obscure wheeled device.<\/em>
 <\/em>
Keeping the camera level was the tricky part.<\/em>
 <\/em>
On my return, White Mountain Central\u2019s excursion train rolled by. While hardly an exemplary image, this one shows both a train and a Segway in the same image.<\/em>
 <\/em>
And so now for another story . . .  we saw some bears too!<\/em>

What’s a Segway? In this view you can see one in motion at the left. On right is the White Mountain Central excursion train. This view was made while in motion.
