Boxes 2 and 3 came yesterday in the mail and this was what was inside. Looks like I've got some reading to do quickly before more come. Luckily some not very long. I do have to write reviews for each of the them though. Blah.

Thanks to Cindy and Halle for the invite. Thanks to the folks at Get Satistfaction and Songbird for hosting. And, of course, the peeps at Terra.
This was my spare camera as my D200 is broken and I didn't realize I could have shot the Leica. Since my D70 L bracket is on loan, the flash was handheld which made AF, flash, nearly everything inconsistent.

I am just out of my night currency so I needed to be on the ground before that sun went down. Proper flight planning helps a lot though I will be honest...a flight like this doesn't require much to pull off.
This white-tail buck is getting tired as he chases a doe at full-speed.. He's just jumped a fence and continued the fast chase for a few minutes while I watched. They went out of sight.
We had several work days to lay out the labyrinth approximately where it would be positioned after earthwork. This is one image from that work day.
book in advance to get a seat to travel the 46 km from mettupalayam to ooty in this Nilgiri queen -Mountain rail.Ihad a waitlisted ticket to had rush to unreserved passenger queue .the first 72 passenger get to travel and I was one lucky guy to get to travel this railway line.The uniqueness of this rail line lies in it being the steepest one in Asia.This is a truly amazing journey that takes tourists from a height of 1069 feet to 7228 feet. The history of the train can be traced back to the times when it was very difficult to reach Udhagamandalam - as Ooty was called in those days. Travellers needed to ride on a horse back or carried on 'dollies' through a forested path to reach Ooty. It was this access difficulty that gave birth to an idea of constructing a rail line to connect the hilly areas of Coonoor and Ooty from plains. The first thought was kept in the year 1854, however, it took around another forty years before the actual work could begin. A Swiss inventor, Riggenback worked on it, and built up the initial line upto Coonoor by the year 1899. Later, by 1908, the track was extended upto Fernhill and then Ooty.
To cope with steepness , a unique system, ABT (Alternate Biting System) is used, which is also called the rack and pinion system. In this the method, pulling the train is quiet different from the usual one. Instead of the engine pulling the train on level lines, here there are two rack bars out of steps with each other between the rail lines. On these racks, the pinions of the train climbs in the same fashion as a person climbs a ladder. The engine, while going upwards, is on the backside to push the train from behind. On the other hand, it is on the front side on the return journey downhill so as to prevent any collision or derailing.
Nilgiri Mountain RailThe journey itself from Mettupalayam to Ooty is full of scenic beauty enroute. Starting from Mettupalayam, a small place that sits on the banks of river Bhavani, the train passes through plain areas for the first five miles or so. Thereafter, in the next 12 miles the line rises to an impressive 4363 feet, and passes through nine tunnels. The tourists are treated to outstanding views of the eastern slopes of forested Nilgiris. From here, tourists can concentrate more on their left side as it is on this side that more beautiful views can be seen. The train passes amidst tranquil and serene views of Coonoor, Wellington, Lovedale to finally reach Ootacamund. It covers a total distance of 116 km and crosses 250 bridges and 16 tunnels.

I felt some weird white guilt after I snapped this picture. The look of disgust on her face mixed with the look of tolerant resignation on his prompted me to blurt out, "nice tie!" to which, taken slightly aback, the brother said, "thanks man" In a super white voice. Like a news caster or some shit.
Getting ready for a hand stand!
