Bovina Rail Trestle

Whenever I go see Earl in Bovina, I also mosey over to see the rail trestle over the Big Black River. It's a wonderful thing to photograph. Most folks don't even know it exists. Want to find it for yourself? Follow Warrior's Trail until it ends at U.S. 80. Or better yet...call me and I will take you!

Rail Trestle over the Big Black

I love photographing the rail trestle over the Big Black River in Bovina. Two of these were taken on Dec. 20 when the river was overflowing its banks. The sky changed quickly. It was amazing to watch the sky turn pink just before sunrise and then evolve into blue. It changed in the time it took me to wade through the kudzu from one side to the other. The other photo is from a sunrise this summer. I heard the train in the distance and hoped it would get there in time to make a good photo. It did.
