Eric Valentine, a well known professional photographer from La Grande, will be our guest photography expert on the October 5 excursion. He will be on hand to offer tips for taking great photos, answer questions and inspire passengers to make exceptional photos of and from the train. With fall colors at their peak, this trip is a great one for taking photos of the gorgeous scenery surrounding the train. But it gets even better! The train will stop at the bridge at Rondowa, let the passengers off the train, then back up and do a drive-by, so you, the passengers, can photograph the train in the dramatic setting. Eric’s photos have graced the cover of several regional and local visitor guides and been published in numerous travel and lifestyle magazines. He is also known for his beautiful calendars.

Rondowa – the confluence of the Grande Ronde and Wallowa Rivers. (Not Eric’s photo – his are better!)
