Morant's Curve Right, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada by Christopher Brian's Photography, on Flickr
Absolutely amazing spot on this planet. I was there in the summer of 2010. I had no idea of the significance of the rest stop when I pulled over to grab a drink. About to leave, and wound up talking to another motorcyclist, and then the train came by.

Great shot of the train there. Bet you're glad you got talking to the motorcyclist!

I am one of those evil motorcyclists, and I like to talk to people. So, it is something that happens often

I was in France 3 years ago and i passed the Millau Viaduct as well. I stayed in the little township underneath/nearby the bridge when - after dinner - the bridge got covered more and more by clounds. I just had to take my camera and got to the same point of view like you. These were the last pictures taken with my old 7D and the 10-22 mm lens. Heavy wind knocked over my tripod. Camera and lens have fallen 6 feet down on solid rock. The impact was so hard, i wasn't able to unscrew the 7D from the tripod without tools. While the 7D survived with some minor scratches, the 10-22 mm broke into 2 pieces. I only owed it for 2 months and it was brand new (and no insurance...).

Hi snowleo.
Sorry to hear about your camera / lens catastrophe, but I think it was worth it for this shot. I think you could sell this image and make some money towards a replacement lens.
I recently acquired a 10-22, I love it, I knew I would as I had rented one some years ago.
Cheers, Graham.

WOW!!
That is a spectacular shot & a never before seen perspective on that oh-so-often-photographed bridge. Sad to hear about the lens though. You know somewhere I had captioned my shot of Millau as "Bridging Skies." Your shot gives it a whole new dimension on how the lights are reflected in the moisture in the clouds and kinda shaping them in the image of the bridge. I'm floored by the shot. Great job.
