p.1 #1 · Ghost Town of California, Bodie

Hi All,

We have stopped at Bodie on the way back from Bishop on a weekend trip. Though couple of folks we met at Bishop suggested to shoot interiors but I ended up shooting much of landscapes at Bodie. Thought I share with you for comments and suggestions!

On this one colors were very harsh and b&w was very flat. so, I played with the saturation and adjusted the hue.

Me too.

Great shots, #2 has that really wide feeling to it. I kept scrolling down

I was at Bodie hw 270 entrance last Sunday but didn't make it in as everyone in the car was hungry and we need to find some food. After eating it was too late.

Almost everything on the side of Sierra range along hw395 shutdown after last sunday until April/May. It'll be truely a "ghost" hw if anyone travels it this weekend.

Interesting series Raj.... and Glad my favorite Historic Park could
provide you with some nice clouds that day also...
"Most" of your IDs are correct in your full series....
Glad you had a bountiful trip there.
...and for those that know Hwy 395 there are always places to get food

But yes, the touristy places shut down for the season...
mainly cuz their seasonal help has to go back to school

*cheers*

I've seen so many images from Bodie ... and I never tire of watching more images, encore and encore

I particularly like your perspectives and the fine color in the first and last of this set.
