I had a few minutes on Tuesday night. Amtrak Keystone<\/em> 649 was running behind the advertised, while eastward Keystone<\/em> 656 was less that 20 minutes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Icy snow covered the ground, limiting where I could safely park, so I pulled into Bird-in-Hand, Pa. Here, I set up my 3Pod Tripod with Nikon Z6-III, and thenas the two trains passed just a couple of minutes apart, I exposed this series of high ISO photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These photos made for an ideal addition to my class on Railroad Night Photography, held last night at the Railroad Museum of PA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to my short slide show, the museum was open to students who were free to wander the exhibits and make images in comparative darkness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
