Where We Left Off: 2020 in Retrospect

Another Autumn rolls around, and another slideshow season does NOT come into fruition, for obvious reasons. So instead, here's my virtual offering to you all. Starting in the coldest and darkest days of winter, join my isolation-before-isolation-was-mandated as we take a look at some trains from the grittiest corners I could find. Next, we take a look at my favorite railroad, and finally, end with winter turning to spring as we observe the days (and sunsets) getting warmer and warmer.
At the end, you'll notice a dedication to Ken Ilio, who was my photographic mentor throughout my High School years (2016-2020). This video, as well as all of the photos contained in it, would have never come into fruition without his endless guidance and encouragement.
Lastly, I claim to own no music whatsoever, it's simply there to compliment dark and moody and cold and whatnot photographs.
Thanks for looking!

Love this Nate! Some of the photos I recognized from flickr, but many were new to me. I would have faved many of them had I been able to!

Thanks for looking, Paul! Glad you found the channel. I've been pondering making another slideshow with more recent photos, time will tell!

That GP15 pulling the Metra train is still one of the craziest things.
Great job man!
