Railway Days ended Sunday with a classic car show at the Railway Museum, a talk about the dangers and advantages of digital photography and music at Grizzly Plaza.
Here are a last few images of this year’s event:

But digital images carry a risk, too: they can easily be manipulated to alter history as he demonstrates here with an image of an ice-boat race. In fact two of the boats in the photo were digitally added to the image. David F.
