Scott in Florida asks:

I've seen some excellent pictures of steam trains taken at night.

It is obvious that the photographer fired a LOT of flash bulbs to
create the picture.

One that pops to mind shows a drive in movie with a steam train in
the background.

Does anyone know the name of the photographer and where his works
can be viewed/purchased?

I know it isn't digital...but we all came from film (or at least most
of us g)

O. Winston Link, and there's a museum of his works in an old railroad station
in Roanoke, VA. I'd imagine you could google up some sources of his photos for
sale, including at the museum.

Never mind. I got curious: http://www.linkmuseum.org/

They've got a store.

Enjoy.
