Fresh Air Photo Friday, June 26th

This is an action shot — a picture taken from a moving vehicle.   Well,….not so much a ‘vehicle’ as a VIA TRAIN.    Ian Young rode the rails from Vancouver to Montreal.

Pyramid Falls, BC

Pyramid Falls, BC

We are fortunate to see this shot of Pyramid Falls that was taken from the train.   That’s because “this”‘ is pretty much the best angle you will ever get.   It is not accessable by vehicle,….One of the many and obvious benefits of being All Aboard!   Here’s one more little fact for ya:  these Pyramid Falls are above the North Thompson River.   The forest has old-growth cedar trees as well as hemlock.   Blue River and Clearwater, BC are the closest communities.

DID YOU KNOW?   Today’s Fresh Air Photographer is Ian Young, a brain injury survivor.   He embarked on this trip he called “The Brain Train”.     Ian Brainiac Young shared his story, how he beat all odds – even death – and how he hopes to change regulations in professional sports,…where concussions and cerebral injuries are common and preventable.    He was sponsored by the Brain Injury Association of Canada.   http://ianyoung.ca

 We would love to hear your story behind the lens.   Send us your Fresh Air Photo today!
