Remarks & Notes

Waking up the Chama Valley. With the alpine sunrise now just minutes away, our early morning Cumbres Turn charges up the 4% toward Coxo Crossing, with her stack beats echoing across the entire Chama Valley. In the stillness of the pre-dawn air, her exhaust plume hangs behind her in the tree tops for minutes on end.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 63,716
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.
