Nostalgia & History > Toto Tuesday: K-64 & the K-2 filter

Like many railfan photographers I knew way back when, I had an ample supply of filters with which to expose Kodak's finest slide film. And I rarely used any of them. The image below is one of those exceptions to that unspoken rule. I knew this eastbound train (eng # unknown) was on the way and I wanted a back-lit silhouette with some color from the sinking sun. But when I arrived on the scene here at the Weaver St crossing I didn't feel like there was enough color in the sky. So out came the ol' K-2 filter and as they say, the rest is history...

Thanks for looking back!
