Decending Donner at Dusk
Decending Donner at Dusk

Alas yet another breathtaking day concludes in energetic fashion.

A former Southern Pacific era signal bridge has been out of service since the late two thousand teens.

This one remains standing with a Union Switch & Signal Co. decapitated signal head left within the bridge's walkway

A hallmark of a bygone era is this piece of signaling plant

Meanwhile, a high priority westbound intermodal decends Donner in the rugged exposed granite west of the former crossover at Crystal Lake.

A few mosquitoes fly in and around as gentle reminders of the joys of the spring and summer twilight hour

Photographic possibilities are unique at this hour with the limited, yet usable, amount of light.

And although there's no direct sunlight, there exist countless other ways to compose a photograph.
