This book is pictorial with captions. The photographs are not of the beauty which one may hang in ones home or office. Like the title says, From the Train. Many of the photographs were shot from an aging 35MM instimatic camera using mainly existing light. All photographs dated after 2007 are Nikon D-40. In some adventures the natural lighting was poor or in some cases as in snow covered trees as in the photos 47620007&8, the snow would have been melted if the sun was out. Thus not having the effect. Much of the photographs are of composition only. They still tell a story.
