More from Promontory Summit

It's been a while, folks. How about some more steam locomotives? This time in snow!

Steam and snow. Snow and steam. The two seem to go together perfectly, and any winter live-steam event is sure to attract plenty of photographers. Since the local Heber Valley Railroad's two steam locomotives are down for maintenance, Utah photographers have had to settle with Golden Spike National Historic Site. Which is great, in fact. That place is just wonderful for photography, in case you haven't noticed...
But anyway. Of the 50 or so pictures I took in the two hour visit at the annual Winter Steam Festival there, only about 15 were suitable for post-processing, and I present you with what I think are the two best. Funnily, Railpictures.net rejected them for not "fitting their standards of artistic composition."
