Tuesday at 10am, my second class in the Railroad Photography 101 series convened at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I delivered my 30 minute slide show, then brought participants into the main hall, where I used portable LED lights to provide illumination of locomotives that normallyl languish in shadow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterwards, I answered questions, offered suggestions, discussed the value of post processing and discussed photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the session, I worked with two cameras. These views were made using my FujiFilm XT1 fitted with a Carl Zeiss 12mm Touit. This allowed me to make photos of equipment in comparatively tight places, All these images were exposed with camera firmly mounted on a 3Pod tripod. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Except for the image of the PRR B1 electric, the photos benefit from fill light from the portable LED lights. My next class is scheduled for Tuesday June 10. See: https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/railroad-photography-101-session-three-tickets-1318803158749?aff=oddtdtcreator<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
