    I was doing some clean up and came across a fine MILW photo that I'd cut out of a calendar perhaps 30 years ago. I don't know the photographer's name. Their use of light is stunning and the composition is unbeatable. I think the art term for the effect of strong contrasts is Chiaroscuro, but I just call it darn cool.

    Just barely got stopped and caught this guy. This is just east of Terry, MT where the old Milw flyover crosses the old NP mainline.
