Noel Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Some very atmospheric pics. Liked the motion blur shots too, especially the 201 streak. If only there had been somebody with your photographic skills out there 30 or 40 years ago recording rail scenes when there were interesting looking trains operating on Irish rails instead of wall to wall 22k buses. You must have a very long reach lens or do you crop those long shots? Quote
thewanderer Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 No crops in those latest shots. I have a 70-300mm lens for the long ones. All of the ones in Heuston were taken with a 18-105mm lens, except picture 182 which was taken with the 10-24mm lens. You can click the "i" to show the exif data on the camera. The Wanderer. Quote

The 18-105 is such a versatile and light lens. We just need to find a suitable 'tardis' and send you back to 1965 for a few days to photograph real trains in colour. Cheers Quote
