Here’s an unexpected photo capture. I was in the last car of a No. 7 subway train as it was leaving Main St. station in Flushing. I decided to try a long-exposure shot inside the tunnel when all of a sudden there was no more tunnel and we were in broad daylight. This is the result.

It just occurred to me the Calgary skyline poster at the top of this blog will soon need overhauling. Since I snapped that photo almost three years ago now, a truckload of new buildings have popped up in the core, including a couple that are still under construction. In fact, there are so many new buildings this city’s office vacancy rate is expected to soar in the coming years.
Anyway … time to hoof it to that parking lot on the east side of Nose Hill Park for a refresh, don’t you say?

Here’s a passerby who stopped to take a look at Jeremy Brooks‘ antique Rolleicord camera. Jeremy, Mik and I were in Berkeley Sunday for a little photowalk.

Another oldie, this time from the start of my railfanning days.
This image was taken on a sleepless night, looking forward on the upper level of the Park Car (domed observation car) aboard the Ocean, Via Rail’s Montreal-Halifax overnight train. We were somewhere west of Rimouski, Que., at the time. What you see here is a long exposure, with passing lights reflecting off the fluted, stainless-steel bodies of the train cars.
This photo was once featured in the Gallery section of Trains magazine.
