Post Office

Post Office

Another part of the old Fort Dallas that wasn't consumed by the fire in November of 2010; the post office, a haberdashery, and on the end, "W.H. McCool's Farm & Ranch Supplies".

Be sure to view it large on black.

Night, full moon, natural strobe and X2000 flashlight.

Operator Error

Operator Error

Inside the cab of the abandoned B&E dragline out near Ferris, Texas. Here's a shot of what this behemoth looks like from the outside.

While it may not look like it, this space was surprisingly difficult to light-paint. The mixture of different surfaces and tones coupled with the ambient light made getting the values in the different areas pretty challenging. I probably ran 8 or 10 short test exposures before nailing a combination of strobe hits that produced the result you see here. Then it was just matter of duplicating the lighting scheme, and letting the background burn in from the moonlight.

You gotta view it large on black to see all the details.

Night, full moon, 2 cross-fired strobe hits up top (one at each side window), and one below, about a foot off the floor, at the base of the operators chair.

B&E

B&E

Down near Ferris, Texas this enormous piece of machinery, a Bucyrus & Erie Walking Dragline Excavator, sits gathering rust at it's last job site.

The sense of scale is a little difficult to interpret from the photo, but this thing is huge; about 3/4 of a football field long. The engine room alone is about the size of a two-story tract home.

Almost actual size?

Night, full moon, natural X2000 flashlight.
