Nostalgia & History > A Surprise Roster Shot

This shot had all the trappings of being a dud -- back lit and mostly in a shadow.  I was shooting a 35mm SLR.  I was careful not to let the sun screw up my light reading.  And the resulting slide was slightly passable.  When I scanned it last week I thought some photo editing would help.  Well it did to my delight.  I now think it is a neat photo, lens reflection, May flower, and all.  Hope you do too.

If you don't recognize her, she was Union Pacific C30-7 2514 built in May of 1980 and later renumbered to UP 508.  I found her at Chrome Locomotive, Silvis, IL on April 11, 1988 with at least her batteries missing.

Enjoy,
Marty Bernard
