Night photography

The exposure was achieved by opening the lens full up and waiting until the train stopped completely. I then opened the shutter, on B, holding it open until I heard the guard buzz the driver to move off. I then closed the shutter. Any more passengers waiting to board and it would have been overexposed! The passengers sitting on the train helped my photograph by sitting reasonably still.

Ah, the 'Night Train' John. You captured a wonderful 'feel' in your image. The warmth inside the train itself and the cold on the platform.

Good tune too, 'Night train'. Recordings from artists as diverse as 'Earl Bostik to James Brown' with a lot of stops in between including 'Louis Prema & King Curtis'. I'm showing my age Now. Smile

Keep em' coming'

Regards.

Phil.
