This was captured with the Rodenstock 70mm/5.6 HR Digaron-W lens and the Phase One IQ3-100 back. A bit of vertical shift was used to keep everything straight. A 1/2 sec exposure provided just the right amount of motion blur for the passing train.The power plant generates electricity (now oil fired, converted from coal) as well as steam for Philly's Center City steam loop. The rail bridge extends the former Pennsylvania Railroad's "High Line" into south Philly's Greenwich rail yard.

@mattblaze You have an acute eye for finding beauty - or at least satisfying composition and interplay of dark and light - in what others might see as nothing but grim industrial dystopias.It's a talent, Mr. Blaze, and the passion you have for your hobby also shines through.I'd personally pay good money to explore an exhibition of your work. Plaques with all the "boring" technical details of how you achieved the shots would be necessary to the overall effect, I'd say. 😏
