Once again the NYTM, the NYCT employees, and the volunteers put on a great trip! They can't be thanked enough.

Here are some of my photos from the June 6, 2010 "Lo-Vs Take a Spin" nostalgia train excursion. This batch features photos that contain TRAINS. Go figure. Future batches will contain photos of other interesting and varying subjects. Keep and eye out for that.

If you want to browse my entire album of photos, please click the following link: June 6, 2010 - NYTM Lo-V Nostalgia Trip

Otherwise, please take a gander at the photos I've provided below. Enjoy!!!

But please take the time to put captions on the photos for those of us who aren't that familiar with the lines.

Thanks! Yes, it was an awesome trip, especially for photographers. They went out of their way to accommodate photographers. They know their key demographics :)

But please take the time to put captions on the photos for those of us who aren't that familiar with the lines.


I'll try to add captions over the next few weeks, but man, it takes a while to add caption over 200 photos!

Very nice photos, including the ones in your album. It must've been an awesome trip; I couldn't attend since I was in church.

I see the train made several trips around my neck of the woods (via Jerome/Concourse Lines)...

In other words, this post sucks!! Poor focus, many underexposed pictures, some with badly need-to-be-adjusted contrast!! The only ones, had this been my photo presentation, I would have shown were the panned ones, which seem to be the only somewhat decent photos shown.

Instead of his steady stream of idiotic alter-egos (aka Tony Clifton and Mr. Volt), he really should have been getting more practice in. Completely unimpressive!!

Brian, leave the Lo-Vs and ALL Nostalgia Train photographing to the REAL photographers here!! You just don't cut the mustard!!

"it takes a while to add caption over 200 photos!"

Well, you are gonna have to do a lot more than just captions!! All I see are issues with poor focus, screwy contrast, blurriness, and quite a few uninteresting ones (I mean damn, what is the story with the Burnside Avenue sign?? Waste of memory card space)

Practice, young padawan, practice!! You will improve......someday!!

Let's get the record straight on something, I do not hate you or ANYBODY!! I don't like you, yes, I think you are a joke when it comes to photography, yes, but I have no hate in my heart to anyone!! Actually, I find your antics comical, though very pathetic!!

And again, Brian Whineberg, do you accept my photo challenge?? If your work is so good, ACCEPT!! If you have confidence in your "photographic skills", ACCEPT!!

I have confidence 110% in my photos and my photographic ability!! Let's see if YOU have confidence in yours!!!

I still await, Brian, but not with any hatred!!
