I mentioned that during last week’s Railroad Photography 101 class (held at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania), I was working with two cameras. Previously, I displayed the images I made with a FujiFilm XT1 with 12mm Zeiss Tuoit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photos in this post were made with my Nikon Z7-II with 24-70mm lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve often said that when it comes to photography ‘there is no “right” answer’. Which is why I often try to learn from other photographers, and why I’m always experimenting with equipment and technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For these photos, I set up the museum’s portable LED lights to provide better lighting a on select locomotives. The intention was to direct diffused light into shadow areas and allow for more uniform exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My next class at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania is scheduled for Tuesday June 10th. See: https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/railroad-photography-101-session-three-tickets-1318803158749?aff=oddtdtcreator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
