Here is a shot taken with the Nikon 135mm F2 DC lense. This was a tricky photo because of the indentation of the stone wall. I was also stuck on the other side of the tracks so I couldn’t get lots of angles to shoot this from. I thought it turned out pretty good though. This was painted by someone actually on the tracks so you wondered how nervous the guy must have been while doing it. I presume it was done at night where trains do pass through. There is not much color in the entire area so I thought this stood out rather well. I may go back and shoot it differently someday.

Today I took this shot of an OZ logo found underneath a maze of overpass railroad tracks in Japan. It was really cool walking around these paths under tracks instead of on top. I found this OZ painted on a stone pillar and thought it would be a cool textural photo to shoot. This photograph was taken with the Nikon D200 and 135mm F2 DC lense. I so far am really liking the 135mm F2 DC because the range is actually quite comfortable to me. For some reason when I want to setup a shot, I seem to naturally feel good about the distance with the 135mm. I was actually surprised that I didn’t have to walk forward or back as much.
