There are many ways to picture a train passing the same place. The challenge is to find new and different ways to make photos at familar spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work at the North Conway Station, NH which is just a short walk from my apartment, and I photograph there almost daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several times in the last couple of weeks I have featured photos of the returning Conway train approaching the North Conway Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve reviewed some of my earlier posts, while including my photos from Wednesday afternoon. These were made using my old Canon EOS7D with an older model Canon 100-400mm zoom lens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’d brought this 100-400mm to work so that my office partner, Trainmaster Mike Lacey, could make some telephoto digital photos with the lens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, before I handed the lens over to him, I figured I may as well use it capture the Valley coming up the Hill to North with GP9 1751 in the lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For comparison, here are two of the earlier photos previously posted to Tracking the Light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the view from Tuesday’s Tracking the Light post that show the same train, at the same location, but from ground level with a very smoggy sky. Made with my Nikon Z6 mirror less with a 24-70mm lens.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Last week’s photo. This is the afternoon Valley train passing the semaphore on a bright day. Also from ground level, but at a broader angle.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
