Photo - North Bonneville Speed Shot

Found this photo by Darrell Wyatt this morning on Flickr. It was taken east of Vancouver at North Bonneville, and shows a vivid reflection of BNSF 9316, an SD70 "Big Ace" on its way east. Check out a detail pic of this unit here: http://ow.ly/5ony

Nice way to start the day, with the greens of the trees, the greys of the skies, and the oranges of commerce. Go Washington!

  1. Thanks for posting my photo. It was a great way to start the day. I was on my way to church Sunday morning and I passed the pond and I thought, "wouldn't that be a great photo with a train rushing by and reflecting in the water." I continued on, and came around a curve in the road and saw a train headed my way. I quickly turned around, sped ahead of the train, slammed to a stop, grabbed my camera, ran across Hwy 14 and snapped this shot as the train screamed by. Sometimes the best thing about being a photographer is being in the right place at the right time. Thanks again. I enjoyed looking at your blog.
