I'd love it if a lot more people would open up their minds beyond the train. My girlfriend who is also studying photography with me constantly reminds me to take photos of objects around me while waiting for a train to come through. Last Thursday while waiting for the UP E-units to come through MP 103.0 on the Coast, a took a bunch of slides around the slough, the hills, and of the many egrets that were around the slough. These will help demonstrate why this area is so scenic, not only a place to shoot trains. If I choose to do a show in the future, these shots will help demonstrate why Elkhorn Slough is such a special place. Maybe something other folks may want to think about. What makes Tehachapi special beyond the trains, or Cajon, etc.?
