C&TSRR Trains & Indians 08-03-08

The Theme for the Sunday Express this week was Trains & Indians

Since I was going to Cumbres Pass to shoot the going ons I decided to take my other camera and a little wider lens to chase the train with. I wanted a couple of "in your face shots" Pentax K10D w/ Tamron Lens 24-135".

The Jicarilla Apache Culture Center http://www.jicarilla.net/ did a presentation after lunch. We learned about their history, a explanation about their dancing costumes and some dances. Everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves.

Very nice selection - love the dancers. You live in such an interesting, beautiful area and that Tamron does a nice job of bringing out the details.

Some nice pics there Roger, especially the first train shots. Nice to see you behind the Pentax again.
