    Fred were you standing on the train tracks as a train was appoaching? I wish I had time this season to get out and do some fall shooting but with my travel schedule I'm swamped

    Tom, we bolth know that standing on the train tracks while a train is approaching is just stupid!

    nice shots of the DM30 Fred. Looks like you were on the Montauk branch?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Re: Fall Colors

    Fred, back in 1997-2001, I was shooting the diesel transition. Got tons of prints if you like RR stuff.

    these look like ealry AM shots. Call me, I am dying to catch some diesel action and I'll see if we can round up a freighter or two!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...

    Hey Mario-

    Let me know if you do any RR shooting, I think I might actually like to come along for that. I have a big interest in all things transportation, but especially diesels...

    Re: Fall Colors

    FAO TOM and FRED, how are the leaves over by you?

    Shoshana and I had our engagement photos taken in October at the Arboretum

    and then again last year while 6 months pregnant. Wondering if the leaves are such that we'll head over there this weekend and bring the little guy for photos in the leaves. Any color out there? At its peak?

    Thanks for the kind words. It is usually be popping a quick shot of a train here and there. During this time a year, everything is magical!

    Very good point that should not be overlooked.

    I left you an email...by any water is is past peak by 2 days or so, but it is STILL BEAUTYFUL!!! Not near a lake river or pothole with some standing water and you will need to wait a few more days.

    Here is a great link report for current conditions

    As for the questions about going out...I just stop by for about 1/2 hour when I can and take a picture. No planning except for location on the way.
