Unexpected Train
mikeSF_ has added a photo to the pool:
I had one night to pack in as much Chicago nightscape photography as I could find, so I took a Lyft a little west of downtown and planned to walk my way back along the river toward my hotel on Michigan Ave.
The Lyft driver mentioned the former meat packing district and I was all in. We went up and down a few blocks before I spotted these tracks and decided to jump out and try for a shot. My driver was so cool, he offered to wait for me to get the picture before dropping me at my intended destination. As I hopped out, naturally, I discovered I was still a block short of clearing some power lines and bright lights, so I took off running up the center track. Realizing, he could at any moment lose patience and drive off, I set up the tripod on the track and opened up for a 30sec exposure of those red lights. Just then, a train came speeding from behind me and I was not sure which of the 3 tracks it was on, but made a gamble to leave my camera and tripod on the track as I stood sideways on the gravel between tracks, sucked in my gut, and thought "skinny" thoughts.
"Woooo-OOOooooo..." the horn blasted at me and I felt the rhythmic tremor begin to increase through my feet. I figured if my flimsy travel tripod started shaking, the shot would be ruined. As soon as the train began to pass the camera, I went ahead and closed the shutter early to minimize motion blur.
I had a moment to check to pic on the screen and bolt back for the car. He was still waiting when I got there. Thanks, Anthony - best Lyft driver ever!
I believe I had the 1.5x teleconverter attached to my FA77mm f/1.8 when I pulled it from the bag, so I just went with that. All the lights around here are the sodium vapor type, so I had to adjust the white balance a bit in post to neutralize some of that orange.
Thanks for looking!
