Storm Light over the Lone Pine

After our half day at Tehachapi, we escape the continuous rain into amazing storm light as we drive towards Trona for a second attempt at photographing them going through the Trona Pinnacles in light. As we all are looking along the right of way of the Lone Pine Branch which is directly left of us, we see the UP Searles local heading back from Searles after picking up their cut on what’s left of the Lone Pine branch past Searles. I swing a u-turn and dart it to Phillips road which was the closest crossing we can make it to before the train came into view. As we were preparing for the shot, we noticed a rainbow in the background which made for an amazing picture with the storm light and the huge rainbow in the distance as the train came towards us at full throttle.
