Well I had some time last week while on a business trip to Raleigh to try out my new Christmas Present from my Wife and My Mom and Dad. I really like this Nikon D5100 just need to take some time to learn all the features.

Here's a look of the Carolinian and the Silver Star from up close and from my hotel room.

My favorite is the black NS unit leading the yellow UP locos. Nice contrast.

Thanks for sharing your pics.

Congratulations on the Nikon Sean. I am suprised that it wasn't programmed to only photograph Southern Ry.

Nice angles. Looks like there'll be long lenses coming for your birthday.

Congratulations Sean.

From experience, the more you are out with your camera taking pictures in all different weather and lighting, the better your images will become. Your off to a great start.

All the best,

Paul
