Tonight on my way home, I took a detour along a road with some old warehouses and discovered a set of track between them and the river. I just had to stop! I love trains and rail roads, and night shooting, and old brick buildings and water. I found them all in once place!!

The truck you see in the photo below is an oil deliver truck. Many homes in the North East US rely on home heating oil for winter heat. It’s much more expensive to heat a home with electric here, and unless you live in a natural gas supplied area, it’s either wood or oil. The “oil” is just un-taxed diesel fuel. Many homes (mine included) also use oil to make hot water for showers, etc.

These next two I almost didn’t even upload. But I figured I would try B&W and see what happened. I’m happy I tried!

These look rather mystical. I really like what you did … NIght Rails is my fav.
Thanks Gina!
Even the B&W picture is stunning! Great work. 🙂
Thank you! I really enjoy B&W photos 🙂
These pictures are amazing! Good job! 🙂
Thanks!!!
loving your long exposure stuff – you’re encouraging me to give it a try. I may even buy a proper tripod 🙂
You should try it! You should defiantly get a tripod! But take my advice; get a good one or else you will want to upgrade very soon (as I’m looking to do).
Thanks for the compliment 🙂 I really enjoy taking long exposure shots
The sepia toned one caught my eye. 🙂
And to think that I almost relinquished that photo to the folder unedited! I’m learning that a b&w conversion can change a throw-away photo to something I really like 🙂
Excellent noght scenes, Jeremy!
Thanks Pablo!!
Great shots! I especially am fond of Norwich Rails.
Thanks!!
No prob 🙂
Whoa! How did I miss this set the first time around? Like you, I love railroad trains and tracks and water and nightshooting. So is it any wonder I love these? Problem is, I wish I had taken them. I’m jealous. It’s now a competition. I’m throwing down the gauntlet- or whatever you’re supposed to throw down nowadays- and going to attempt to take a series at least as good as this. (Just give me a year or so to perfect my technique!) How come you can only “Like” something once?
lol, thanks for the huge compliment 🙂 Not much technique needed. Just a tripod, and maybe a remote/cable release to shoot longer than 30 sec. Give it a shot! You’ll be surprised how easy it is to shoot!
I’ve done some night shooting. The shot titled “Low Morals” was taken on July 5th, 2011 around 9 at night. That was my first attempt. You’re right. It’s easy!
That is a great shot of yours!
Thank you. I’m definitely enjoying your work!
