Trains, cars and planes

Hotshot Eastbound, Iaeger, West Virginia by O. Winston Link, 08/02/1956.
Watching a recording of an otherwise pretty laboured TV programme on night art by Waldemar Januszczak, I was introduced to the work of O. Winston Link. (Rather appropriately, the O stands for Ogle.)

A good overview of his career and some reproductions of his amazing photographs are here:

Too bad that I was in Roanoke, Virginia, a few years ago and never realised there was such a treasure as the Link Museum just down the road from my hotel.
