Photography in Ghost Town, California
Sean and I have been to Europe, Canada, Mexico, and much of the United States but California has always evaded us. We’ve just never had a reason to go and yet we feel compelled to be able to say we’ve been there – it’s just something you need to do, you know? Last week, while in Vegas, we were told about an awesome ghost town in California and so finally we had our reason! This place was killer cool! Random photo-ing ensued. Observe and enjoy…
The empty swings out in the middle of the desert were just eerie!
We felt like we were walking through an old Dharma Initiative Camp – craaaazay! Don’t you think??
Ah! I love love LOVE texture and windows and doors!
Self portraitizing…
I had no idea that palm trees do this
The dry lake bed was so cool! We thought we would be walking out onto sand but it was crunchy soda.
Window + Old chipping rusty paint = awesome!
and finally, my homage to Ansel Adams from the drive back to Vegas.
Thanks for viewing our randomness! :o) Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start!
Okay, please spill the beans…where was this Ghost Town?! We live in the middle of the Mojave so it can’t be too far for me! :) I’d love to check this out…you have some great images from your adventure.
Woah, middle picture of you and Sean on the chairs….Sexy…The End.
Great pics, you guys! Sean I see you can proudly rock the Tru’s again. Must be the running!
Love how you both are rockin the boots! The last picture is super cool.
You guys totally rock! You can make a ghost town seem so..alive! And ya gotta love the wooly palm trees! Great work as always!
Yeah . . . you guys are looking hot. Mel- nice boots. Sean- Nice jeans. But enough about your fashions. Beautiful work.
I’m thinking one day I might need that last one above my fireplace.
They are all eerie in a fantastic way.
I love how you guys go exploring the desert ghost town in stiletto boots and a tie! :) Those photos are awesome, and those furry palm trees are nuts. In the boat image they look like big furry legs.
