Brakie Wrote:Ed,Nice photos.As you can no doubt tell, that's what I had to do in several instances, not to mention a few photos where I just shot out of the window of the truck. Come to think of it, these days with the terrorism threat on everyone's mind, sitting in the truck and taking photos might be a lot more suspicious then actually getting out and taking a photo!
Any time I run into a brick wall (No Trespassing Keep out!) I use my zoom and hope for the best.
Have observed over the past few years that people working at industries are more likely to hassle you about taking photos then anyone on the railroad. Of course, very often a quick stop at the office to ask permission and perhaps explain why you want to take photos of the facility can even get you a guided tour. But I was pressed for time so I bypassed that step and just tried to get the best photos that I could in spite of the poor lighting conditions and trying not to get on the wrong side of the No Trespassing signs too often.
