Basis of the Blog

This blog is an extension of Candid Captures. The intent, depending on the day, may be one of several different things. There will likely be entries directly related to a specific event that I was hired for, yet, there may be many entries just related to my personal photography or the equipment I use.

Hopefully there may be something here of interest to you and will peak your interest to check back every once in a while.

There were so many disturbing parts of the tour, however, this was the one of the most heart wrenching spots for me. Especially when I began to visualize what transpired here. Depicted is one of the cattle cars uses. This was build in 1919 to transport cattle, but was also used to transport about 100 people at a time. Men, women and children all squeezed for days, sometimes weeks at a time. When they arrived here, within seconds, the decision of whether they would live or die happened with a swipe of the hand to move to the left or right. Left to die, right to live..... Most all the women and all the Jewish children were moved to the left.
