Once again one of my photo collections has achieved "All-Start" level in Gurushuts "World of Car's" challenge. The photos were all taken during the auto show at Operation LZ in Forest City, IA.  Here are my submissions.

Photos Taken on Railroad Tracks

While reviewing and voting for photos in GuruShots and other photography web site, I am amazed with the number of photos taken on and around active railroad tracks.

There have been portraits taken between the rails. There have been folks walking railroad trestles; photos taken where people are just walking down the tracks.

My customers were several railroads. I developed a healthy respect for railroad equipment and tracks. They are NOT places for a casual photo shoot!   Photography around active railroad tracks is dangerous. 

As such, I will NOT vote for photos taken on or around active railroad tracks, and you should not, either!
