Title: October Contest - Cemetery Shots
Post by: E. Hodgson on October 03, 2017, 06:02:09 PM
This will be a tough one for a lot but lets see some shots of trains running past cemetery, to open this a little any "spooky" place will suffice as well.  Halloween themed Railroad pictures!


Submissions end on 10/26/2017

Yea, congrat's K8.

BTW, I looked through my entire hard drive . . . . nothing linked to a Halloween-type scene, with an NS train nearby.  The best shots I found were of the RB&BB circus train rolling by Beech Grove cemetery in town, and the only reason the grave stones were in the photograph is because they got "in the way".  I couldn't crop them out of the scene, or would have!  Bottom line, they were hardy contest worthy pics.

On to fall colors, the November challenge.

Since Iv'e been working on moving myp hoto archive, I reviewed everything I've shot since mid 2011 and couldn't find a single shot of a train passing a cemetery or a similarly creepy scene. Mind you, NS does pass a grave yard in Canisteo , NY but i've never shot atrain there.

Congrats to KBDTI for getting a shot that's pretty rare.
