LifeInMaine
It tells a story, but leaves so much untold.
Mark Ramstead replied
You can spend an entire day in this town taking pictures and going on tours. A very hard way of life that has past on for those in the USA. The way things are looking now though, hard times may be making a comeback.
JayneLogan
This is wonderful, Mark … I love pictures of abandoned history .. cheers!
Rene Hales
I was liking the textures in the thumbnail and then I opened to see your description. Really comes across in the image even at the SMALL size. The frame within a frame works too.—Rene

artist4peace
very nice…...
Sharon Mau
It is a very creative frame, and I love the weathered wood and textures with the bit of cloth hanging there as if it was caught on a snag. Everything looks so whitewashed. I love your artistic application. It is a fascinating image!
Mark Ramstead replied
Thanks. It is a picture of Bodie Ghost Town I have not seen tried before…
Sharon Mau
Mahalo! I am unfamiliar with this location and so I googled it!

Thank you! It helps create a sense of place.
Mark Ramstead replied
I spent a whole day there and it is worth it! Something about the way the wood likes to be photographed.
Sharon Mau

Inspired capture…I love the composition and the window looking to the ghost town…Wonderful.
Tibby Steedly
Fantastic composition!

This reminds me of some Of Georgia O’Keefe’s paintings of the west. There is just something about looking through an old window into the desert! Stunning shot!

DiEtte Henderson
This is really cool, love what you have done here! I had you on my watch list a few months ago and just noticed that you weren’t any more…have you found that people drop off your list sometimes? I added you back, don’t want to miss your great work!
Mark Ramstead replied
There have been some serious glitches in the new submissions and who sees them dept…. Thanks very much!
Heather Mitche...
awesome image!! Love how you framed the outside w/the window.
AnitaInverarity
This is really wow- and I def didnt get this in my feeds due to the current gremlins x
Mark Ramstead replied
Well, this was submitted some time ago. The dates of comments seems to come and go as well. I don’t know if that is intended or not.
AnitaInverarity
Oh yes I notice they are back now- lots of peeps were asking for the dates back, cos they disappeared- Its pretty mucked up just now (I am finding I’ve missed lots of great work- this
included). Maybe I just geniuinly missed it myself, its hard to know when the probs started.
sonjas
I really like this image.
María González

BLYTHART
I sometimes think that the more ramshackled a building is, the better it looks in a photo … this is good photography in my opinion.
Lisa Jewell
Perfect framing…..
I want to live in the country…..........
Mark Ramstead replied
Well this town is certainly out in the country! I suppose you could retire and write in a nice little cottage…
Lisa Jewell
YES, I’d love to just that xo

SueAnne
OMG I love this…..........
Mark Ramstead replied
Not too far from you. Been there?
SueAnne
No I have never been there yet, but this is is my last weekend to work at my shop, I hired a 3rd person so I can take the week ends off and find my life again. LOL
So I hope to be able to get out and do sme photography soon. A day drive to Brodie would be GREAT, and I will work on it soon.
Mark Ramstead replied
You need to spend an entire day there! June Lake is near by and a beautiful place to spend the night or two! The snow has to melt first though! Check road conditions.
Elle66
This is full of so much. Its wonderful, its decay, a great shot. But I am jealous that you were there to see it in the flesh, the smell, the feel, the scene.
GREAT!

What an extraordinary work of art – your composition and this framed view are just spectacular. Add that rather haunting look of an abandoned history – and mystery – and you have perfection.
