Walking around Yale University for the New Haven Road Race I happened upon this little stairway down to a basement on a random Yale building. It was a little dull, but I bumped up the saturation a little to bring out the colors, especially the green splotches, which are probably algae. This is, as usual, taken with my Olympus E-M1 mk2 with the superb 12-40/2.8 lens. This is really a fabulous lens that is so very versatile. I carry this lens along with a 7.5mm Laowa and possibly a 60 macro of a 40-450/4. But given the 12-40’s great performance […]

The Whippany NJ Train station is a train station that is now unused with regular service. The line that used to serve the station was closed a long time ago. But the train station is now a railroad museum with a dozen or two cars, exhibits, etc. I think they also have some steam engine rides from time to time. This is a photo of the train station taken on digital and converted to black and white. I did a bunch of smoothing and massaging to emulate fine-grained film with a little glow, as I remember it.
