Photo of the Month – May 2017

Congratulations to Steve Oyer for winning
the May Photo of the Month Contest

The photo which I have titled “Sunrise at the Elkhart Depot” was taken on August 14, 2016 at 7:06am. I had been taking photos at the Elkhart Amtrak station several times that summer trying to get a nice sunrise coming down the tracks, along with a train coming down the tracks. Unfortunately, that morning I had a beautiful sunrise coming down the tracks but by the time a train came down the tracks the sky had lost its colors.

I was using my Canon EOS 6D and this photo was shot at 1/125^th sec, f/10, at ISO-100. The focal length was 24mm.
