As a railfan or rail photographer we strive to take photos of trains and remain safe doing so. This is by staying of the main line, giving the train plenty of room since a train over hangs the track by a minimum of three feet each side, we do not go around crossing gates when down, we stop when the rail road crossing lights come on. Simple common sense rules and when we are near tracks we always expect a train.

gallery: Streets of Las Vegas
Las Vegas and Nevada are part of the old west, the gunfights of yester years still occur played out on tree lined streets and darken alleys. Here the good guys don't always win and the bad guys some time get away with murder.
Here in this gallery from time to time you'll see another side of Vegas traffic accidents, murder scenes, the other night people that most tourists stay away from. Or sometimes something you just won't see crusin the strip.
also other locations throughout Clark County Nevada

gallery: Neighborhood Strays
These strays are the current relatives of their ancestors’ who have lived in the surrounding desert years before I moved in to my then new home some plus 20 years ago. Competing for food along with the coyotes and some times becoming their food. They survived by hunting rabbits and birds for survival invading the trash of the new home owners for scraps.
Now 20 years later they still roam the neighborhood living and dieing. Now by stray dogs, uncaring people, gone are the coyotes due to the expansion of Las Vegas, moving further into the hills rarely returning to their old haunts. Now only the cats have the neighborhood.

gallery: Flags
I listen as songs are sung, trumpets play and the flag is raised and lowered. Each time the goose bump rise and a tingling occurs. Here's the American flag flying around Las Vegas and elsewhere.
