Welcome to the home of JeffK photography

Here you will find info on my photography...new and old. I do mostly nature and things, but also try to catch the right expression on a family member or stranger. At some point I'll be adding some scans of film slides from my high school photo lab days. Hope you enjoy.

Buildings...

...is a new challenge run by Destiny at Twisted Fate Photography. It has the following rules:

Rules:
  • Photo must be taken by you.
  • It can be a new or archived photo.
  • Post my button or link back to me with your entry post.
  • One submission per person.
  • You must have a blog to participate.
  • Please be a follower.
  • and of course have fun!



I took a peak at some of the entries...really nice. The link is open until Friday, at which time I will comment on others' submissions. So, here is my entry for buildings:



This is a photo of the old railroad station that was part of the CNE (Central New England) railroad, which ran from Beacon (on the Hudson River) thru Millerton, and on into Springfield, Mass. (Technically this was the NDC in town). This station was at a crossing of the CNE and NYNH&H railroad. Although in utter dis-repair, there is a broad history of the station and the railroads as well, and now that the ROW is becoming a trail, more emphasis may be placed on its revival (I hope). At some point, I'll be able to walk (or bike) from Hopewell Junction, all the way to the Poughkeepsie Rail Bridge and into New Paltz.

Feel free to comment on this and other posts of mine, if you wish.
