56 Year old French photographer
Jean Marc Frybourg went to great lengths to capture these unbelievable pictures
of some of South America's most scenic rail routes in Peru and Chile. The Paris
based photographer whose job is in the pharmaceutical industry, has an
obsession with travel and photography, in particular immortalizing his
favorites railways.
The photos feature trains mainly
servicing mines as they weave through incredible landscapes which are made
accessible due to just as impressive engineering feats that make the viewer
wonder how on earth they got a track there in the first place. You can well see
in one shot, two trains are flawlessly aligned on a mountain side, which was
taken with the cooperation of the railway company while another is transporting
tanks of sulphuric.
Frybourg says; I was very keen in
travelling photos, when I was boy. I have always taken photographs. I have
started to learn photography and using serious cameras in 1972 when I was 11 or
12-years-old. His love of trains started with model roads and went from there.
I wanted to travel and see the trains. Since then, I’ve always preferred taking
pictures of trains.
