In the picture with the trains, If I'm not mistaken that the red line the "heavy" rail line.

True.

 

Cool pics. B&W adds a journalistic feel the views.

Now that's just cool!

Great essay, bizbiz.  B&W photomaking is an art.  It amazes me how some GenYers gripe how watching photos, TV or film in B&W really freaks them out.  I love good color shots, don't get me wrong, but color allows us (as photogs and conesuers) to become lazy.

Nice job! Glad somebody posted photos of the Hessler Street Fair.
