Daily Photos 4th year

At the Daily Gallery one picture, preferably taken that day; is shared with others. While that is difficult to follow (shooting everyday) I have been putting up a picture everyday and this is my FOURTH year. It's been an enjoyable time viewing pictures of other members and learning new techniques and customs from different places. I think this is the best way to travel to places while sitting at home, and also making friends on the way! It has been a pleasure sharing my pictures and I thank all of you for taking the time to comment on my pictures. Earlier galleries: First year - Second year - Third year - Critiques welcome!

The Nilgiri Mountain Railway (Mini train) is a railway in Tamil Nadu, India, built by the British in 1908. The NMR track is 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 3⁄8 in) gauge and was pulled by steam engines made in Switzerland which are now replaced by diesel locomotives. In July 2005, UNESCO added the Nilgiri Mountain Railway as an extension to the World Heritage Site.
