Cataquet on March 10, 2007  Nice, Dave! Perfect Timing! Posted by RailfanAlex on March 10, 2007  All that waiting has paid off. Well Done! Posted by Bryan S on March 10, 2007  Waiting for that "perfect" perfect shot is what keeps you coming back, right? Otherwise anyone could get it. Timing, positioning, lighting, framing, background - that's a lot of variables. Good shot, Dave. Posted by Dave Toussaint on March 10, 2007  Thanks everyone, I almost kicked myself in the butt for not having my wide angle lens on, so I did get lucky. This was one of five shots, the first three the BNSF was blocked by the crossing signal, the last shot has the BNSF centered but the 3rd and 4th UP units, a good picture in itself. I was backpedaling as I was taken these too. Posted by on March 13, 2007  Nice work, Dave. Another interesting variation would have been to shoot the BNSF train as it gets closer with the consist up abov on the UP. Let me tell you, I'd kill for this kind of location here in South Carolina. -- Joe H.
