Not quite good enough for a picture of the day
I heard the whistle soon enough to get to a good viewpoint. I got the bicycle kickstand down, got my purse out, got the camera out of my purse, turned on, set to a good f-stop, and got a few pictures of the northbound Coast Starlight.
Unfortunately I’m blind enough so that I didn’t notice that it wasn’t in focus until after the first twinkie had shot into the frame. Ooops.
