Needs New Tires -WC
by Paula LeVay
This shot was taken last October at Bodie State Historic Park located near Lee Vining, California. Bodie contains what remains of an abandoned "Gold Rush" town that thrived from 1877-1882 with mining continuing in that location until 1942. At its peak, the population was estimated to be 7000+ residents. Although the remaining buildings are maintained in what is considered a state of "arrested decay" so the buildings' roofs, windows and foundations are repaired and stabilized, other artifacts such as these old autos are left to the elements.
I've added a small amount of canvas to the left side and bottom of the image so I could straighten the horizon with a slight crop.
