Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in North Conway, NH at their annual "Steam in the Snow" held every year in January.

Time

Early afternoon....after following the train through it's run and stops, this was a spot that I found to catch a few images.

Lighting

As I was fairly new with the camera, I was shooting in the P setting and everything seemed "Just right"

Equipment

Hand Held, Nikon D70S

Inspiration

There was not much snow along the ride...but this iron horse intrigued me...I love taking vintage trains, planes and automobiles. and

Editing

Yes, a touch of Topaz.

In my camera bag

Camera, flash, lens cleaner, batteries, and memory cards

Feedback

Be alert and try and be available at each turn...and don't forget to look behind you! I have followed a different path than my Mother, who started oil painting at the age of 65, and continued till she passed away at the age of 92. She received many awards and recognitions for her paintings. I found that the “knack” of painting was not in my genes, but became interested in the art of photography after my retirement at the age of 62. Patience, learning, practice, having fun, and sharing for me are very important parts of the enjoyment in photography. The challenges of taking that perfect picture and the enjoyment of sharing my pictures keeps me motivated to learn and improve.
