Description
Continuing with my chase of CSX J732 on the Henderson Subdivision from yesterday with CSXT 4083, 4049, 4384, 278, 749, 7231, GMTX 2149, 2135, 2201, 2152 and 2151 are these two photographs that I am happy with, but not what I had planned!
I had planned to photograph the train as it crossed Gum Lick Trestle, however that spot didn't work out, due to traffic and the fact that the train was moving!! I was headed down the country road, to the crossing close to Gum Lick and that's when I heard the crew call the trestle! So, I turned around and headed for the north end of the siding at Kelly, Ky. Off in the distance I could see there was a nice rainbow forming right at my spot, due to a combination of the sun and a light rain! My shot was to be from up high enough to get the power and the rainbow together with the drone, as the rain was very light where my shot was.
However, by the time I arrived and got the drone airborne the train was already passing through the crossing, and I only got high enough to catch two photos with the rainbow!
Don't get me wrong, I like both shots, but further back and up higher so you could see the whole rainbow and all the engines was the shot! I think most all of us that chase and photograph trains have these moments when we capture the "almost" scenes that we envision in our minds.
