Night photo of a 1921 Union Pacific Steam Engine 2564. This behemoth was built in 1921 and weighs 300,000 lbs./136,077.71 kg. This "Mikado"-type coal-burning steam locomotive was originally built for UP subsidiary Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad. My joints and muscles felt sore from my second COVID-19 vaccination photo, but this didn't dampen my enthusiasm. I met up with my friends Ron, Dave, and Ivan on this beautiful warm March night. Bathed in light from numerous streetlights, I worked around it by photographing it from the opposite, darker side. I then created some depth with a ProtoMachines LED2 light painting device.
