Remarks & Notes

Down on the coast it's the rainy season - warm and wet - but above the clouds in the mountains near Asmara it's cool and dry. In these perfect conditions for steam loco photography, a charter freight clings to the mountainside as it heads towards Asmara.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 76,205
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.
