In those days, Q423 ran from Worcester, Mass., to Selkirk, NY. I cannot recall why the crew was on short time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I made the exposure using my Canon EOS-7D at 6400 ISO at 1\/3 second, f3.5 using a prime 28mm lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canon 7D is an excellent camera. I&#8217;ve had mine for a dozen years and exposed thousands of digital photos with it. It&#8217;s higher ISO settings are weak compared with modern cameras. Here the 6400 ISO setting appears relatively pixelated. Yet at the time I was delighted to the ability to use such a fast ISO setting at the twist of a dial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"474\" height=\"316\" data-attachment-id=\"33706\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/june-21-2011-crew-change-at-palmer-mass\/crew-change-at-cp83-palmer-q423-img_7553\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?fit=1700%2C1133\" data-orig-size=\"1700,1133\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Brian Solomon&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 7D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1308619767&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;BrianSolomon&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;28&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;6400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.4&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?fit=709%2C473\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?fit=474%2C316\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?resize=474%2C316\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?w=1700 1700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?resize=709%2C473 709w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?resize=1022%2C681 1022w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?resize=205%2C137 205w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?w=948 948w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/briansolomon.com\/trackingthelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Crew-change-at-CP83-Palmer-Q423-IMG_7553.jpg?w=1422 1422w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption>File adjusted in Lightroom from the Canon 7D camera RAW file.
