RP contributors have posted some terrific night photography recently – so here is my contribution.


That tail end oscillating mars light is still bouncing around inside my Nikkor AI 35mm f2.8 lens !


( good thing digital did not exist – that mars light would burn a hole in some of today's sensors ! )


Thank goodness for the CN Turbo, to break the monotony of the constant parade of FPA-4's ; FP9-A's ; GO GP-40's and ACPU's (converted FP7-A's etc), not to mention the thousands of SD-40's !


Minus 8 C  - typical winter evening – once the camera equipment acclimatized – no battery required ! -  very slowly and carefully advance the film !


Note the Bathurst Street TTR Switch Tender's shack, likely he has taken refuge in the (operational) TTR Cabin D !


January 2, 1977 Kodachrome, westward at Bathurst Street by S. Danko.
