Remarks & Notes

The photographer Lewis Hine is known today as a man who worked toward reform for the working person. His photography highlighted the extreme conditions they worked in. What is less known is he did work "for the man." This included work for the Pennsylvania Railroad. I like to think that this photo I took on 7-24-2009 of two SP No. 4449 mechanics working the almighty Alemite gun in Alma, MI is one where I paid homage to Hines.

The Profound (of a state, quality, or emotion) very great or intense. Album created by member Coloradorailphotographer	Album Views: 11,092
The reason railpictures.net has captured my imagination for so many years. Images of quality and distinction, in other words, amazing railroad photography.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 95,387
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.
