In 2007 I photographed inside the Bodie Ghost Town
buildings. In one building I came across some backlit
glasses. Thank you for taking the time to view and respond.

I would like to see the end of the glasses in top right corner, but that's a minor nit. The soft warm light is working well for this shot.

A nice still life shot. The lighting looks great.

I would agree with Kent, but overall, nice still life. I like the backlit look.

Very nice, Robert. Perhaps a little bright.

Were you led through by Jill in October '07? I was there then.

Thank you, Jeffery. I don't recall the lady's name. I believe that she resided
in Southern California, and at that time was a state park ranger, although she
might have been retired.
