Overlooking the Hood River Valley before the fruit trees bloomed. The landscape around this area is such that you have to drive 3 miles up a hill to reach a valley. That's what makes it special.

(Disclaimer: Those of you who follow me on Facebook or railpictures.net probably already saw this shot, so I share this (1) For my Flickr friends who haven't seen it (2) To share a longer version of the story behind this shot.)
For those who read all the way to the end, I left yesterday's post with a little bit of a cliffhanger. Tonight, I bring you the conclusion. As I mentioned, by the time Alco S-1 #5 was ready to bring Alco RS-36 #5019 and the former UHRR coach south, daylight was fading. I was able to get a few more daylight shots at Riparius, The Glen, and a little north of Thurman before the light was totally gone.
At Thurman, the 5 ran around its train on the siding so that it could shove it the rest of the way south. First, this provided an opportunity to get a decent long exposure of the 5--now at the other end of the train--as my good friend Brad Peterson (who followed behind the train in his hi-rail truck) lit it up pretty well with his headlights. Second, this now meant that the 5019 would "lead" the rest of the way south. Though the 5019 was dead and inoperable, the crew used a generator to run the headlights and stationed a crew member in its cab. Normally--not being a night photographer (other than occasional long exposures)--I would have been done taking photos after Thurman. However, earlier in the southbound chase, an opportunity presented itself from an unexpected place...
In addition to myself, John Sesonske, John's friend Jeff, and Max Brisben, one other photographer had been tipped off about this secret move. Yes, Hal himself let Kevin Burkholder know about the move to ensure there would be some night shots. Now, believe me, I know Kevin is a bit controversial in the railroad photography world. I for one was not happy when he removed a leased unit from a shot on Cuttingsville Trestle on the Green Mountain Railroad and posted it to railpictures.net (which thus resulted in the "VTR 431 World Tour," which--for the most part--was an innocent, fun way to poke fun at the situation). But--I have to say--especially in light of certain photographers yelling at friends of mine on the Batten Kill, Kevin has always been friendly to me trackside. Such was the case when John, Jeff, and I ran into him in North Creek.
When I left to get water in North Creek, Kevin asked me if I'd pick him one up, too, and flipped me a few bucks. A little bit later at Riparius, he asked me, "Hey, did you bring your tripod?" Then, he explained that he had arranged with the crew to stop the train on the bridge at Hadley for a night shot and invited me to join him. He said it was the least he could do for picking up a water for him. Well, how could I say no to an opportunity like that?
After getting my long exposures at Thurman, I hit the road. Kevin had arrived at Hadley just before me and was already setting of his flashes. Meanwhile, I scoped out the best spot for us to stand for the shot. After getting into position, Kevin generously offered to do as many test flashes as I needed to ensure I had my composition exactly as I wanted and my focus as good as I could get it (and boy was the latter tough!!). It appeared to me that Kevin was going to shoot horizontal, and--just to confirm--I asked him. So, partially to make sure the two of us covered slightly different angles of the event--along with my general preference to shoot "tall" bridge shots like this vertically (think, once again, Cuttingsville)--I opted to shoot vertical.
At 11:20 PM, the train rolled onto the bridge and stopped exactly where we hoped it would. This was the result. Though I can take credit for finding where to stand and the composition, I wouldn't have been able to do it without Kevin providing the flash.
After this, the story of the night was not through, however. Though Batten Kill owner Bill Taber had helped run the train north, he had swapped out with someone else to flag crossings on the southbound trip. I knew Bill wasn't as familiar with the crossing locations as I was, so I checked in with him at one of the crossings south of town. I asked how things were going, to which he responded, "Disorienting." So, I offered to help guide him and the other flagger to the rest of the crossings. As we were on our way to the next crossing, the crew started giving Bill directions to the next crossing when he radioed them back that he had an "escort" now (haha). Having never worked for a railroad, to me it was a fun way to "join the crew" and help make sure the 5019 safely reached its destination. After flagging the final crossing, Bill thanked me and said I was a big help. That made my night. As cool as this shot was, memories like that are why I'll remember this chase for the rest of my life.

Qatar is a small (11,000 sqkm) but indubitably important Persian Gulf nation; aside from oil, more natural gas reserves are found here than anywhere except Iran and Russia. It is nearly totally surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf. The country is flat with some rocky outcrops up to 130 feet (40 m) high, with the desert landscape ranging from rocky shrub-land to beautiful sand dunes, and some bleak salt flats in the centre of the country.
On my way from Nepal I've decided to have half a day stop over there too. Rented a car and went directly to desert to be rewarded with some stunning desert shots which I didn’t hope for. This one was taken just before sunset. The wind was blowing strong and dust was flying in the wind with wonderful evening light. Even this is not typical desert photo, I'm very pleased with the result.

A caravanserai (Persian: كاروانسرا kārvānsarā) was a (usually Persian-inspired or built) roadside inn where travelers could rest and recover from the day's journey. Caravanserais supported the flow of commerce, information, and people across the network of trade routes covering Asia, North Africa, and South-Eastern Europe. Most typically a caravanserai was a building with a square or rectangular walled exterior, with a single portal wide enough to permit large or heavily laden beasts such as camels to enter. The courtyard was almost always open to the sky, and the inside walls of the enclosure were outfitted with a number of identical stalls, bays, niches, or chambers to accommodate merchants and their servants, animals, and merchandise.
Caravanserais provided water for human and animal consumption, washing, and ritual ablutions. Sometimes they even had elaborate baths. They also kept fodder for animals and had shops for travellers where they could acquire new supplies. In addition, there could be shops where merchants could dispose of some of their goods. The word is also rendered as caravansarai or caravansary. The Persian word kārvānsarā is a compound word combining ''kārvān (caravan) with sara (palace, building with enclosed courts), to which the Persian suffix -yi is added. Here "caravan" means a group of traders, pilgrims, or other travelers, engaged in long distance travel.
This particular shot was taken in Virani caravanserai in Mashhad currently used as Mashhad Anthropology museum which nicely shows how the daily life in such a caravanserai looked like. The woman in the photo is actually no mystery to me but a dear friend Mashid who was kind enough to take her chador (A chādor or chādar (Persian چادر) is an outer garment or open cloak worn by many Iranian women in public spaces; it is one possible way in which a Muslim woman may follow the Islamic dress code known as ḥijāb. ) to "model" for me to add a human element into such an environment. I have purposely chosen low shutter speed (1/15 s) to capture the movement.
