This is a re-blog from the Exploratorius site, but I can’t miss this opportunity to share his great photo and writing and some of my own. I have pics, but they don’t have nearly the power of just this one black and white masterpiece. We’ve been to Bodie several times, and it’s either arid and cold or arid and hot. Bodie is the largest Ghost Town in California and many would argue the entire Western portion of the US. It’s rugged and hard to get to, inaccessible in the winter. But it’s a fun drive up a long dirt road to get to it, there are few services available and fewer toilets. However, once you’re there, it’s pretty amazing. Here’s the two photos I’ve taken in the past I wanted to share:

Its all about perspective. That photo makes me think about the people who lived there.
