Very cool shot and treatment – where is Bodie Ghost Town? Is it near Sac?
Ben Pacificar replied
I wish it was closer to Sac but its actually about 4-5 Hours southeast from Sac. Its right on the California\Nevada border off of highway 395.
Thinking about going back which is why I was studying the old pictures.

Fab HDR work, Ben. Love the treatment and the perspective. Have you had a play with layered textures yet? Cheers Elana.

Not yet girl! Just simple stuff like the clouds on this one but nothing quite to your level yet. Did You send me that tutorial or file yet?

Great HDR. I like the angle and the dramatic clouds. Nice subject.
