Welcome to The Nocturnes Night Photography links page — O.
Winston Links! Throughout The Nocturnes site, you can find THE largest collection of stellar Night Photography links ANYWHERE, embedded everywhere — from our online shows and Gallery, to this links page, and our Blog (for even more!), representing the work of some 200+ artists.
Unlike the street photography of Link's time which was dependent on the natural light available, Link used a shooting method that was truly unique.
The title of this links page, of course, refers to renowned photographer O. Winston Link (1914 - 2001), who documented the last mainline steam railroad in America, the Norfolk and Western, from 1955 to 1960, much of the work done at night.
A train buff since childhood, Link spent five years making 2,400 photographs — each meticulously planned and composed on his 4x5 Speed Graphic — to document the final days of steam. A small sampling of The Nocturnes Alumni
