Best Viewed Really Big! (2739 x 686)

I found this photo at the Library of Congress: General view of wreck, I.C.R.R., Farmer City, Ill., Oct. 5, '09. The original is an 8-inch x 33-inch gelatin silver print. The image was a copyright deposit by International Stereograph Co., Decatur, Illinois, October 11, 1909. Today there are no known restrictions on publication.

After a little bit of research, I found the following article about the wreck in The Daily Review, Wednesday, October 6, 1909. The Daily Review was published in Decatur, Macon County, Illinois, in 1886 and from 1892-1919. If anyone could get a photo of the original article in the newspaper, that would be greatly appreciated.

1 Killed, 25 Hurt in Head Collision.
Illinois Central local and fair special wrecked near Farmer City—Decatur people slightly hurt.

October 6, 1909

Farmer City, Illinois—One is dead and many are injured, some gravely, as the result of the head-on collision between two Illinois Central trains, one a regular local and the other a state fair special, two miles west of Farmer City last night.

The Dead:

Miss Caroline Watson, Farmer City.

The Injured:

Engineer Jack Clark, Clinton, right ankle torn apart in jump from engine.
Engineer McCue, Clinton, right leg broken in three places.
Frank McKinley, Farmer City, probably fatally cut and mashed in collision; three ribs broken.
Ben Barnes, Farmer City, cut and hurt internally.
Darius Walters, Farmer City, leg broken.
John Bateman, Farmer City, forehead gashed, bruised and cut.
Mrs. John Bateman, Farmer City, hurt internally, may die.
Two Misses McCord, daughters of John T. McCord, near DeWitt, seriously cut and bruised.
Miss Belle Rolofson, Clinton, injured about head and chest.
Mrs. Frank Maple, Clinton, bruised above right eye.
James Watson, Clinton, cut above eye.
C. L. Morse, Clinton, seriously hurt about face and head.
Ex-Mayor E. S. McDonald, Decatur, ankle sprained.
L. W. Large, baggageman of the regular train, scratched and badly bruised through lungs.
Fireman Boggs, of train 525, left shoulder hurt by falling tank.
Charles Summers, Chicago, minor cuts and bruises.
P. L. Bobb, Clinton, injured about eyes.
Mrs. F. N. Maple, hurt about face and eyes.
Conductor Dockens of the special, severely cut and bruised.

The collision was between local No. 525, south bound from Chicago and a special state fair train from Springfield to Gilman. The regular train was pulled by Engineer Clark with Conductor Carpenter in charge. The special was pulled by Engineer McCue with Conductor Dockens in charge.

As far as can be learned, the blame of the wreck lies on Engineer McCue, who misread his watch and thought he had fourteen minutes more than he really had.

The trains met on a curve west of Farmer City at 9:50 o'clock. Both engineers applied emergency brakes when they saw the collision coming. The regular train came to a stop just an instant before the special, still tearing along the track, struck it.

Both engines were demolished and laid across the track. In the special the combination baggage car and smoker telescoped the first day coach, catching the unfortunate excursionists in a trap. The other coaches were unhurt, but all were jarred from the track.

In the regular train the baggage car was completely wrecked and the smoker was also wrecked. The day coach, one of the new steel coaches, recently adopted as the standard by the Illinois Central, stood the shock and stayed on the tracks. It was hardly damaged beyond being battered at the end. An ordinary wooden coach would have crumpled up like cardboard and doubtless taken lives with it, for the train was crowded.

3-color palette experiment

Image by anselm23
When my grandfather died, I inherited two Japanese prints he owned that were among his papers. They aren't very valuable, but they have sentimental significance for me. One of my contacts has been duplicating the 24 views of Mt. Fuji by Hokusai. Today after seeing these other Flickr images, I realized I could do the same with these two Japanese prints. I didn't have the prints with me, but I did experiment with the palette here, and with the composition. Stay tuned for further efforts in this series.

Testing my newly gained understanding of HDR and photoshop skills.

7-shot RAW HDR tonemapped via PhotoMatix 3, then imported into Photoshop for artifact correction. Final color balance tweaks, cropping and rotation in Lightroom.

This is another step forward to where I want to be, as far as techniques and workflow ability goes. The next step will be getting panorama tools setup correctly to shoot this as a ultra-high resolution panorama.

During post-processing, all 3Gb of RAM was taken up by Photoshop and Lightroom (mostly Photoshop). I will need a computer upgrade to be processing things this way when I get my 5D Mk II. (Along with monitor calibration hardware if I'm serious about selling prints).

Update

Someone had FlickrMailed me about the post processing on this photo. I'll share the technique here.

I read through StuckInCustom's excellent tutorial here - before I headed out into the field. The enlightenment moment for me is realizing that when I first started doing HDRs, I wanted to capture that magical glow in the scene, and typically I go for the overexposures. However, I've always neglected the underexposed frames and as a result I don't have the data to fix the blown out light sources.

I think this scene works, because the arches in the pac sci center, and the neon signs on top of Key Arena, is very readable and not blown out / blurry due to overexposure. If this scene had a body of water in front of it I would have shot the long exposure shots to capture the glow off the water, but longer exposures here just blow out the scene and doesn't give me any more usable data to work with.

Now that you understand my reasoning going into taking this picture, the rest of the technique / workflow:

* I shot a series of shots in manual mode, ISO50 on the 5D, on a tripod with mirror lockup and self-timer (did not have cable release).
* The shots were bought into Photomatix, combined and tone mapped for detail enchancement. I up the white and black points to spread the histogram out and make the scene brighter and I played with the smoothing of the luminosity until I got something I liked.
* I then tone map this into a 16 bit TIFF, and send this TIFF into Photoshop
* I exported the RAW files for the darkest and a medium exposure out of Lightroom into Photoshop. I should play with this as a smart object, but I didn't have a lot of time editing this.
* The exposures are stacked top to bottom: HDRed TIFF, darkest exposure, normal exposure. Note that despite careful use of tripod and mirror lockup the camera still shifts between shots. I used the auto-align feature (layers, autoalign) to correct for the camera movement. I thought it was pretty cool... (I'm a photoshop n00b).
* Mostly I just use a layer mask, 30% transparency brush to brush away the blown / artifacts from the neon to expose the lowest exposure (middle layer) to repair the neon signs.
* I did some blending of the lowest and median exposure layers to try to give a better result with the neons.
* The result is saved into a flattened TIFF and bought back into Lightroom.
* I applied a white balance correction on the *final* product. I shot this on RAW, tungsten balance and found it too warm for my liking, so I decreased the color temperature until I got something I liked.
* Cropped and rotated it so that the buildings are actually vertical. I need to buy a new bubble level :-)

That's it! :-)

Thanks for all the comments, guys!

NOT a Cat print 7-8 cm wide (more photos below) 20110201

Image by Kenneth Cole Schneider
Found this large track along the side of the unpaved portion of the 19400 block of Miramar Parkway, Miramar, Broward County Florida on February 1, 2011. I measured the width by comparing the tracks to marks on my lens hood. They were about 7.5 cm (3 inches) wide and about the same length-- the photo angle foreshortens them a bit. The tracks crossed over the road, but because of all the coarse gravel they were indistinct. The animal appeared to spend some time loafing in an area aboout 5x10 feet on the south side of the road, as there were multiple tracks and overprints. I did not have a wide-angle lens with me, so I took these with the macro setting on my 720 mm telephoto system, from a distance of about 5 feet. Tracks are quite round and do not show nail prints. Toe imprints are rounded and there are 3 large and one smaller toe (to the right) in this impresssion, which does not appear to be a double register. Much too large for the Bocats that I have seen and photographed here. I hesitate to call them panther tracks, but they do suggest that this may be the case. No Florida Panthers have been reported in this area, to my knowledge, though there is an immediately adjacent Water Conservation Area that consists of recovering Everglades habitat. It is separated only by US 27 from the Everglades Preserve that does provide a continuous corridor to areas known to be inhabited by panthers. I talked to Florida FWC and they recommended that any panther sightings in this neighborhood should be reported to (561) 625-5122.

The FWC agent looked at the above photo and advised:

I looked at your image and at the angle presented it is hard to tell what type animal the track came from. Do you have any images that are taken from above so that we could look at the toe alignment? If there is a water source nearby, have you considered visiting the area to see if tracks are present there?

Right now, the identification of the track is hard to do. We would be happy to look at other images.

Thank you for contacting FWC with your information.

My reply:

I did walk along the edge of the lake, but there are no mud flats. Since it has not rained lately, all the puddles were dry and hard-baked. The tracks, which were in fine dusty sand on the shoulder of the gravel road, were almost obliterated by the high winds that arose this afternoon. Please take a look at the photo I took at 2:15 PM-- although now much more shallow and its features are not brought out by shadows because of the high sun, I can determine that they were actually about 8 cm (over 3 inches) wide.

A brief tour of the model (sorry for the crappy quality of the clip)

Image by post-apocalyptic research institute
Designed in Minecraft, exported with Mineways, and printed on a Zprinter 650.

This model has a block size of 3mm (edge length). We used a different texture set this time: DokuCraft - HIGH.

The castle is sliced into three parts to show the interior of the model. The game model can be downloaded here: dl.dropbox.com/u/28620795/village_model.zip.

Fun fact: this castle is the same as in this printout: www.flickr.com/photos/postapocalyptic/6606213211/in/set-7...
