Goal of the Photo
One of those "must do" events in life is to ride on the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Steam Locomotive from the town of Durango to Silverton, Colorado. Slowly winding it's way north near the Animas River experiencing this steam locomotive is like stepping back in time. Luckily I was seated near the back of the train in an open air car so as the engine rounded bends I could lean out and take photos like this one. If you get a chance, this adventure is highly recommended.
