Attention all photographers!!

Ever wanted to try your hand at some nighttime railroad phtography? Done it
before, but would like to revisit the subject? Well, The Connecticut Eastern
Railroad Museum in Willimantic, CT is putting on it's Second Annual Night Photo
Shoot Saturday June 11, 2005 from 9pm until about midnight. Here's the
details:

Connecticuct Eastern Railroad Museum
55 Bridge Street
Willimantic, CT 06226

Second Annual Night Photo Shoot
Saturday June 11, 2005
9PM - Midnight
Lumedyne flash illumination will be provided - you bring your photo gear.

We will have at least FIVE scenes set up through the night featuring both
passenger and freight consists. The locomotives we will be using for the
photos are:
* EMD FL-9 (ex-CDOT & New Haven)
* GE 44 Tonner (ex-Long Island RR)
* Alco S-4 (ex-Central Vermont)
* EMD SW-8 (ex-Pfizer)
* GE 25 Tonner (ex-Northeast Utilities)

There will be time for multiple photos of each scene.

Also, Mark Player will not only be providing his Lumedyne setup again this
year, but he will also be bringing his restored antique REA box truck for some
of the shots!

Price is only $20 per person. Your admission ticket to the Night Shoot will
also gain you free admission to the museum that day.

Space is very limited - we are only making 12 spots available, and advanced
payment is required to ensure your spot. Of course, every dollar will be going
to support the museum - everyone involved is donating their equipment and time!

Some more details are on the museum's website - http://www.cteastrrmuseum.org,
along with a photo from the 2004 Night Shoot of the ex-CV S-4. Email me
directly at tom@nanosphoto.com with any questions, or reservation requests.

Thanks!
