Another shot taken from the Katy Trail. You can see the other one and informaion here. I can imagine Jesse and the boys picking this spot to jump on the train and relieve it of some valuables. Even the circling buzzards think this would be a good spot to attack.

Looks like a small cave for Jesse and the boys to hide out in, too. Excellent shot, Tick. Love the textures in the rocks, and the colors. Well done.

Wow. This is much more rugged, like something farther West.
Love it.

Beautiful shot and the buzzards add a sense of the ambiance of the entire area. Gives the image a sense of tension about what has happened or what may happen there.

Looks like a nasty setting for an Old Western-type ambush...And the buzzards are there to take care of any telltale signs 'fore the lawmen arrive :P

Nice capture though, Cap'n...Faved...

I don't think I would care to 'jump' onto a moving train from that height!...Nor you I guess!...

No wonder the buzzards are circling...they be after leftovers!!!!

Great angle for this...textures and details are terrific!

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Looks like a good hide-out. I can picture them coming out with the guns blazing and the news would be spread around among the buzzards. Nice shot with good clarity Tick.

Tick - Don't stand still or the vultures will be swooping close by thinking they have their next meal! It does look like a scene from the old western movies. You got the lighting captured just right, with crisp colors and focus on a well composed scene. Thad

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Whether they jumped the train from here or not, it is a beautiful rock formation and that blue sky sets it off nicely Tick.
