I’m beginning to delve into the world of Long Exposure Photography! I’ve been intrigued by pictures I’ve seen using this technique and have decided to learn the ins and outs of doing it and see if I can apply it to my train photography! These first two are of the new JW Marriott hotel in downtown Nashville, Tennessee.

According to Wikipedia: The Indiana Rail Road (reporting mark INRD) is a United States Class II railroad, originally operating over former Illinois Central Railroad trackage from Newton, Illinois, to Indianapolis, Indiana, a distance of 155 miles. This line, now known as the Indiana Rail Road’s Indianapolis Subdivision, comprises most of the former IC line from Indianapolis to Effingham, Illinois; Illinois Central successor Canadian National Railway retains the portion from Newton to Effingham. INRD also owns a former Milwaukee Road line from Terre Haute, Indiana, to Burns City, Indiana (site of the Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center), with trackage rights extending to Chicago, Illinois. INRD serves Louisville, Kentucky, and the Port of Indiana on the Ohio River at Jeffersonville, Indiana, through a haulage agreement with the Louisville & Indiana Railroad (LIRC). – #jimstrainphotos #indianarailroads #trains #nikond800 #railroad #railroads #train #railways #railway #csx #csxrailroad #inrdrailroad #indianarailroad
November 4, 2018 – Day 369 – iPhone 7 Plus Daily B/W Photo Challenge – Jeremiah – I’ve that for the next 30 days I’m going to try to do a B&W portrait a day with this challenge. I’ve not really used the portrait feature of the iPhone a whole lot so I’ve decided to work on it for the next 30 days. The first portrait is of my great-great nephew Jeremiah today after church as we were eating lunch. I can tell after working on getting a photo of this 2-year-old that using the portrait mode on kids is going to be a bit more of a challenge! Step outside your box today with your photography by doing something different!
