In 2020, I submitted some film-generated stereoscopy images to an international 3D stereo photo competition in Vienna, the Photographische Gesellschaft in Wien. Unfortunately, the photos were not selected for the show. Fast forward to 2023. I’ve got a more stable setup with some killer stereoscopic images, and once again, the 3D stereo photo competition is…

Christmas Eve at a covered bridge
It’s Saturday morning. Snow on the ground and snow in the air. This is supposed to be a time of cheer and celebration. Holiday and harmony. Unfortunately … this year I’m spending Christmas with myself. Ugh. Well, maybe I can make something out of this. Something worthwhile. Something that takes away the emptiness. You know…

Here comes Santa Claus (and the Green Island Power Authority)
I received this notice from my community Facebook page. Green Island still treats the holidays with joy and amazement. You can’t tell me Santa Claus doesn’t exist, especially when you can see his travel route printed right in the Facebook community page.

During my Sunday photo shoot of the Saratoga, Corinth & Hudson Railway train, I set up my gear so that the train would pass across Route 9N. Now when a train bisects a road, the railroad crossing sign flashes and a little gate drops. And lights flash on and off as the train passes. And…

Last week, I treated myself to the Capital District model train show at the Empire State Plaza. It’s a chance for me to check out the rolling stock and train collectibles, fantasize about building a gigantic model railroad layout in a two-room apartment, purchase a couple of refrigerator magnets, and leave. This time, I spotted…
