 This picture was shot atop of Mount Washinton. It was a great day with my girlfriend's family for it was my first time there. It's a real beautiful place... to stress like crazy by rolling on the edge of a canyon, especially when it's another photographer driving and looking at the landscape at the same time. I was trying to find something HOT (or COLD) at 6000 feet high. Then, from out of nowhere, that steam train came up. Bingo :)

Good one with that steam. Seems like there's trouble getting up the slope. The colors and detail are also good.

fantastic tableau - don't see a whole lot of heat but I can understand there has to be some involved in a steam engine
