Sunday evening, we waited out the sunset at Esbenshade Road in Strasburg, Pennsylvania. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strasburg Rail Road had scheduled a seasonally themed late-departure. I figured this would be an ideal opportunity to make some sunset views of the train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The orange globe of the sun was nearly at the horizon by the time old 89 worked up the grade toward Paradise Lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make the most of the sky, I exposed this sequence manually rather than relying on the in-camera meter to intrepret what I was tying to preserve digitally. Key to my exposure was the desire to capture the defining shape of the sun and not merely as a fuzzy blob.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I needed to make a variety of changes to the RAW files in post processing, and I think the final results speak of success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
