Our group met in the little town of Bridgeport, on the east side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, for a weekend of photography. We would look for colorful groves of aspen trees, explore the ghost town of Bodie, and walk along the shore of weird Mono Lake. At first I was a bit disappointed with the autumn color in the trees - a cold snap and a warm spell seemed to have confused the aspens; some of them had lost their leaves, some leaves were simply turning brown, some had yet to turn, some aspens were in glorious full color. In reality, we had a wonderfully varied palette of colors to work with. Mono Lake and Bodie, views of the Sierra, mountain lakes and vast views of the desert didn't disappoint, either, weaving a visual spell of magic around and through us that I tried to comprehend through the lens of my camera.


Ghost Lights - The True Gold of Bodie

Just as our photography group was about to leave Bodie, we spotted lights, golden lights, shining into the dusk, seemingly from the interior of a row of old buildings. It was as if the spirits in this ghost town were preparing to settle in for a long autumn night.

The Ghost of Bodie

There are stories about ghosts in Bodie. Are they true? We used a special, one shot camera technique to capture this ghostly image.
