When I peered into this building at Bodie State Historic Park, I was pleasantly surprised that the room appeared as though it hadn't been touched since the town was abandoned. The quilt draped over the bed frame really struck a chord in me and reminded me why I love documenting our forgotten world.

Moonlight hits this old mine during blue hour. 

Established in 1909, this Eastern Sierra Mine was built in the mountains at just over 8,000 ft. The property contained a mill, mine offices, employee bunk house and general store. The ore mined here was transfered to a nearby town via a tram system. It was the last mine to close in the district, remaining in operation until 1938.
