This is another of my very early morning shots of the artwork which is to be found on my way to work.
The special lighting comes from the early morning sunrise

Leica Q2 Monochrom

Another relict from the past

What do you think, this is? Looks like an old bus, but standing on tracks like a train. It’s a rail bus / railcar. I haven’t seen them for decades, but I still have a vague memory of them. This one was standing in a museum waiting for wondering eyes.

I’m not perfectly sure, but I guess, this is a VT95 from the 1950s. It was operated on secondary lines. As this is labeled as VT50, I assumed it is one of the 4 rail busses sold to Austria in 1970, as those 4 were operated under the type class name VT50. Whenever a reader knows it better, please drop me a note.

More of my images can be seen on my own blog.

Butterfly Koi

Black And White Photography, C.S. Young Jr., Photography

I captured this lovely butterfly koi at my local water garden center. Though the water wasn’t a clear as I would have liked, it did produce a darker tonality with some assistance from a polarizing filter.
