Amazing Photos

The job I had when I had this office is long over, the company went under, and the owner fled the country. This is still a cool picture. I think I took it with an iphone 6.
That, my internet-friend, looks like crappy photoshopping for the sake of clickbait.
The reality is more like "tall bridge over valley." Impressive structural engineering, absolutely, but hardly stratospheric.

Somebody probably took a photo in the fog is what thought.
That's what I was thinking, too.
Being that high above sea level, you'd think there would be a legit pic of it above the clouds. Maybe there is...I'm too lazy to Google it.
Negative, ghost rider. The light is wrong (the angles differ on the clouds and bridge/train).
Two pics, sloppy-'shopped together.
Then, I haven't the foggiest idead. Maybe it is Covid fog. Believe me, that is a real thing and not fun.Negative, ghost rider. The light is wrong (the angles differ on the clouds and bridge/train).

It's a pretty dry climate up at those altitudes, so that's a long shot. Here's a wide view, with a better look at the landscape. Click to super-embiggen:

Oh, I don't blame you, Rich. Some of those "fun fact" compilers just play fast and loose with the details simply to get the click-traffic. It's their fault, not yours!
Sorry to be a buzzkill.
In my defense though, the real pictures definitely are "amazing photos" of some excellent railway engineering.
The "fact" site would have been better off just rolling with reality.

Nice! We went there a few years ago, and took that same tour. I really liked all the art deco touches, inside & out.
Thanks all. It was a great visit. These photos don’t do it justice. It truly is a fantastic man made Wonder of the World.Nice! We went there a few years ago, and took that same tour. I really liked all the art deco touches, inside & out.
