I made this photo of the old Union Pacific station at Caliente, Nevada in March 1997. Photographer Mel Patrick and I had been following the Los Angeles & Salt Lake route west from Utah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not far from Caliente we’d discovered one of the tires had developed a serious defect. It wasn’t flat, but it was about to be!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We arrived in town too late to visit the local mechanic, so stayed overnight across from the station. Before sunrise, I went over to the railroad and exposed a series of Fujichrome slides of the UP station using my Nikon F3T that I’d fitted with Mel’s 16mm full-frame fisheye. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This unusual lens lent itself to photos like this one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve only visited Caliente once in my life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
