"Ogle Winston Link", known commonly as "O. Winston Link", was an American photographer. He is best known for his black-and-white photography and sound recordings of the last days of steam locomotive railroading on the Norfolk Southern/Norfolk & Western in the United States in the late 1950s. A commercial photographer, Link helped establish rail photography as a hobby. He also pioneered night photography, producing several well known examples including Hotshot Eastbound, a photograph of a steam train passing a Drive-in theater/drive-in movie theater, and Hawksbill Creek Swimming Hole showing a train crossing a bridge above children bathing.
