Hey, wait, now we’re talking – a bright flash of orange out of the corner of my eye as we bumped across a railroad crossing in Lebanon. (Lebanon, KS, 14:24 PDT, June 18, 2016, SX700 1/1000s f3.2 ISQ 100)
Wheeling around and circling back to the hopeful sighting, I managed to find an empty lot with brush, weeds, grass clippings, and other debris just trying to get in my way as I climb my way through a slash pile to get a better look at this SD-45 beauty. The guy across the road is looking at me sort of strange. It would seem those in the agricultural heart of America don’t get many railfans stomping through empty, potentially snake-infested land devoid of any obvious horticultural interests. (Lebanon, KS, 14:24 PDT (yes, I’m shooting quick – I’m hanging out of a tree hoping my fat little frame doesn’t break the dead branches I’m standing upon while continuing to get ‘the look’ from a far-too-interested gentleman from a nearby house while trying to hang far enough out of the brush and undercover foliage for a clear picture), f4 ISQ 500)
Uh, oh, sorry – apparently they practice other types of agricultural endeavors out here other than wheat and corn I’m sure it’s for personal medicinal purposes only. Just don’t shoot. ( unknown location in Kansas, because I am not with the DEA or local vice squad, 14:25PDT, SX700 1/1000s f3.2 ISQ800)
