A Union Pacific freight train heading north from Montrose with the Rocky Mountains in the background in western Colorado. The photo was taken in late January.

Good sunset shot of the Osaka monorail, taken earlier or later today (depending on your point of view or which side of the Date Line you’re on, I suppose) by a Sony NEX-7.

Go ahead and guess the country where this photo of a very lonely and cold bus stop was taken. I’ll even provide a hint: the photo was not taken in North America, Antarctica or Africa. That only leaves you four continents to consider. Answer after the jump.

Nice pic — transit and parking lots. Guess the city. Answer after the jump.

Here’s the email that Jung sent accompanying this fine photo:
Los Angeles is one amazing place to bike, and its varying landscape offers so much for cyclists. Attached is a photo of myself on top of Saddle Peak in Malibu after climbing up roughly about 2,400 feet on my bicycle.

There’s transit out there somewhere in the big city. I took this one of Tuesday evening’s spectacular sunset with my iPhone 3GS from the 19th floor of Metro’s headquarters. I gave the colors a slight nudge with the Camera+ app — but only a slight nudge. Even by So Cal sunset standards, this one was a doozy.
An even better photo — taken by Jonathan Alcorn with a real camera — can be seen over at LAObserved.

Good use of blur in a photo taken in London yesterday. The image was captured with a Canon EOS 5D Mark II with a shutter speed of 1/6 of a second, f/8.0 aperture and a 5000 ISO.

Interesting pic of maintenance and rebuilding work being done this past weekend on tracks on the New York subway’s B and Q lines. Many parts of the system are a century old.
