One of the most famous tourist railways in Japan is the Kurobekeikoku Tetsudo, better known as the Kurobe Gorge Railway.
Starting in Unazuki, this little railway hugs the Kurobe River deep into the Japanese Alps along the Kurobe Gorge, Japan's deepest V-shaped gorge. Along the way it passes by numerous power generating dams. It's a beautiful railway further amplified when the leaves turn in Autumn.
Multiple trains operate a day out of the terminus, each hauled by EDM or EDR boxcab electric locomotives. Here, the day's second to last train for Unazuki crosses over the iconic Shinyamabiko Bridge near the terminus, led by 2 EDR electric locomotives.

Padley Gorge in the Peak district can be the start of a long or family walk. It is 5 minutes, if that, from the station at Grindleford and the shortish walk I did last Saturday led you back to the station and excellent cafe.
This is just off the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire. I've been here once before a few years ago, but always wanted a better shot. This was taken back in early October.
In other news, I was promising a New Years update, and I have that now. Visitors to my site will see that I'm now doing portrait/pet photos. They won't be on my Flickr page, and I'm keeping the two sections of the website separate. So if you or someone you know is local to Boston and is interested in finding someone to do that kind of work, you can send them to my site for available times.
This is a photo I took inside Germany's most famous river gorge -- the Partnachklamm. Like the Zugspitze mountain it's one of those must-see locations around Garmisch-Partenkirchen in Bavaria. And even though you find busloads of tourists there it is still spectacular to hike through it. I went there on a rainy day which was perfect for the location. Many small waterfalls formed because of the rain and the green moos stood out even more than usual. However, I have to say it's one of those locations that are better to experience than to photograph. You are really missing the sensation of the constant water spray on your skin, the thunderous sound from the river going through the gorge and the almost claustrophobic feeling of the small stone carven path. I hope that at least the visual splendor of the gorge can be conveyed through my photo.
Another wave from Cyclone Seth crashes its way towards the Point Lookout Gorge. A fallen eucalypt and carved rock provide direct testimony of erosion still under way.
The Wissahickon Valley Gorge - The color of autumn in November 2018 FINALLY takes hold. For two days only, this past weekend my challenge was the beautiful Wissahickon Valley Gorge over 2,000 acres of parkland and trails that would challenge the best of hikers. I welcome Autumn every year with long solitary hikes into the landscape with camera gear strapped to my back looking for an inspirational location to photograph. Seems Edgar Allen Poe enjoyed this place too because well, he wrote about it in his 1844 short story ‘Morning on the Wissahickon’ where he stated ‘Now the Wissahickon is so remarkable a loveliness that, were it flowing in England, it would be the theme of every bard.’

A distant view of the awe-inspiring Hokitika Gorge, where a lone figure is dwarfed by the vastness of the landscape. The turquoise waters flow gently beneath her, framed by rugged rocks and dense greenery. This perspective captures the majestic scale of the gorge, reminding us of the immense beauty and power of nature, and the smallness of human presence within it.
The Aare Gorge is a section of the river Aare that carves through a limestone ridge near the town of Meiringen, Switzerland. As the Ice Age was coming to an end around 10,000 years ago, water from melting glaciers eroded a deep, narrow chasm through the limestone barrier.
Length: 2 kilometres.
Width: Between 30 meters and just 1 meter.
Thank you for your visits / comments / faves!
I took this Saturday evening on my way back from picking Matsutake mushrooms. I was camping at the Natural Bridge Campground just down the road from here. This is just the beginning of the gorge. Just downstream the Rogue River sqeezes into a narrow canyon for the next quarter mile.

This is the view at the Fairy Glen in Snowdonia, North Wales.
I was down close to the water to get a view through the gorge and with the composition decided it was then a case of waiting for the clouds to shift and allow some sunlight to illuminate parts of the scene.
A six second long exposure reveals the movement of bubbles on the water, helping to lead your eye through the scene.
The Vintgar Gorge (Slovene: soteska Vintgar) or Bled Gorge (Blejski vintgar) is a 1.6-kilometer (0.99 mi) gorge in northwestern Slovenia in the municipalities of Gorje and Bled, four kilometers northwest of Bled. Carved by the Radovna River, it is the continuation of the Radovna Valley. The sheer canyon walls are 50 to 100 meters (160 to 330 ft) high, with a total slope measuring about 250 m (820 ft). The stream has created many erosive features such as pools and rapids, and terminates in the picturesque 13 m (43 ft) Šum Falls (literally, 'noisy falls'), the largest river waterfall in Slovenia.
