Worked a photo charter organized by the Friends of the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad last weekend. The money shot in the whole trip is this, where the west end of Rock Tunnel opens onto a shelf cut in the side of the Toltec Gorge. To the right is a vertical drop of about 500 feet to the Rio de Los Pinos. We had sixty riders, had to do three runbys of this scene, putting 20 people on the small viewing ledge at a time. Shot this with my Z 6 and the 24-200mm f4-6.3; it's not as resolute as the 24-70, but it lets me work in this environment without changing lenses.
Here's another from the B&O museum in Baltimore. Shot through the window of the excursion train; visitors aren't allowed in this area.
Regarding charters, I'll put in a plug for the Friends charters on the Cumbres and Toltec. A fundraiser for the organization, and still a good deal compared to other offerings. I know the organizer, he's a rather accomplished railroad photographer and works hard to get many good runbys...
North American Monsoon action.
@gene_mcgill, your lightning images are great!
@ggbutcher great image. Pretty sure I rode that train back in the 60s as a preteen.
