  • Railway photography is my passion and I do love a good sunset, this video is an hour spent on Pepper Road bridge Hunslet, capturing a mixture of Northern and Freightliner trains under a fantastic sunset sky.
    For low light dusk and night railway photography I usually take two frames, one at a low ISO and longer exposure, then another frame capturing the train, at a shutter speed to stop the train but usually with a high ISO, I then blend the two in photoshop giving a higher quality image with much less noise than would be normal for a night railway photographs.

    Excellent and informative as ever, Andrew. I find that Freighliner terminals are quite magical places when the darkness falls...

      Cheers, Peter, this is a great spot for night time railway photography, there’s quite a bit of artificial light and all the shinny rails add to the scene.

    I spent some happy hours spotting the trains on that bridge and the nearby embankment in the early 1980s.
    Lived 5 mins walk away.

      Many thanks, unlike many locations this one still has a good railway feel and doesn’t suffer from dereliction, we must have watched the same trains, this was my local line towards Woodlesford as a kid in the late 70’s early 80’s.

      Thanks Simon, taking two shots is a useful technique in getting a presentable image without lots of noise and grain, I do like a good sunset too.

    Super. Prefer the colour to the mono in the last case~!

    • @AndrewShenton
      @AndrewShenton  2 роки тому

      Thanks Darryl, I'm in agreement, I do prefer the colour version, I do particularly like the contrast in colours at sunset. The reason for the inclusion - I was taking part in a B&W photography session the other night and I'm on the look out for suitable B&W material.

      Not a bad idea John, I've not been there for a while, certainly not since the new wires on the Church Fenton line have gone up.
