At the end of a day's chase one often reflects on the moments and photographs collected. I spent the day along Highway 8 between Stratford and Goderich chasing a plow west, and a train east. What was the best moment and did you pull off 'that photo'? 581 has reached their home terminal at Stratford, the sunset is indicating a Sailors delight and I capture a reflection of Plow 55413 in a small pond - to cap off a great day.

    Thanks guys. Snake, i’m going to say no. I had that day on Saturday when we had the blue sky – I didn’t go home until Sunset ! Haven’t had a good blue sky day in Months.

    Snake would like to point out that Stephen Host was spotted going in and out of the Stratford Walmart buying large amounts of water. Hmmm.

    Crap sandwich Steve. I just saw this one on the best shot banner. You really are the Pondmaster, a snowplow with reflection (and some sunset). Truly well done. Thanks for this photo. :-)
