To illustrate my column, I selected a digital photo that I exposed in May 2010 using my old Lumix LX3\u2014my first digital camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To view the image that I chose, you will need to obtain a copy of the magazine. However, here I\u2019ve included a few of the other railroad images exposed at the same essential location that same evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the time a volcanic eruption in Iceland had filled northern skies with fine layers of ash. While this brought havoc to European air travel (I was waiting in Stockholm for a friend to arrive from Addis Abiba who had been delayed by more than 24 hours because of the ash cloud), the ash produced some stunning sunsets owing to the greater high altitude light refraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was just learning to make use of digital photography. Luckily, my Lumix LX3 had a superb lens and lent itself to making great low light photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
