18: Photojournalism - Where you find it

Thursdays are always a hectic day for me. A group of us get together around my dining table for Bible study every Thursday at 12 noon. This means all the house cleaning I have put off all week needs to be done before they arrive, and it never all gets done.

Today after Bible study was over I took a little nap, as I did not sleep well last night. I got up from my nap and was headed out the door to go for my walk at WalMart and to pick up an Item I needed for today’s photo, I got a call saying there had been a big train derailment west of town. As railroading is one of my favorite subjects it was westward-ho-the-wagon.



The authorities were keeping folks a ways away as if there was a lethal load on the train and all it was was corn, plain old whole kernel corn headed toward a feed mill. This was shot at 300mm then cropped half the image. Then to add confusion it was a hot hazy day. So you get this instead of what I had planned.
