Jerry Bright is lookin' good!
Peanut butter you say? I can't get enough of the stuff, but regardless this shot is fantastic. The reflections and wet pavement intensify the tones/saturation. Love this one.

@bluechameleon: Bit of an oxymoron isn't it, jerry and bright? : ] Take care of yourself.

@Stephen Phillips: The arm came down. Instead of the customary...drat!...I said...oh boy!...and popped out in the rain to take his picture. RJ Corman is an acquaintance and I intend to drop him a print next time I'm down that way.

A fine looking train on a fine looking rainy day. The light is so much nicer on a day like this.

Love the way the rain soaked street enhances the darkness of the foreground. I guess I should quit pouting and get out in the rain and shoot.

@jeff (aka dogilicious): Thanks! There have been few days without rain : ]

The wet road is a strong element in this shot, super BW.

Something about a train like this at a crossing that calls out across the years . . this capture has all the ingredients and a full measure of atmosphere..
