Nice shots. Those bodies would be bought up in this part of the world & either hot rodded or used for parts. I've restored far worse metal than that.

Thanks Jay. i was in bodie last sunday. it had a snowed a few days before and bodie was closed until saturday so i hit it just right. it was my first time at bodie and i loved it but i had to get over tioga pass because i spent the next two days in mariposa, which was my home base for yosemite. tioga pass closed the next day because of one-day winter storm which made me thankful for sealed lenses and bodies in the valley floor where i was waterlogged :D.

Ed, nice pictures, you were lucky to get up there this late in the year. At that altitude, snow comes early and stays a long time.

Great shots Ed! 2 questions:

1. 16-35L I or II ?
2. Any filters?

Thanks in advance.

thanx A&A :D! and everyone...........

16-35L II no filters except for UV. i tend not to use a CPL on UWA when there's sky involved. the light was excellent that day but as you probably know large rusty cars are tough subjects :D.

its a bicycle.... !! man im jealous i really wanted to go there back in 1998, but my girlfriend at the time did not want to do the "hike" we were living in SF so I had to do with "Drawbridge" another ghost town, I think it has been removed since for construction or something.

Nice shots! Gotta put Bodie on My list for a visit. Just in passing Bodie is a State park and nothing can be removed or changed. It is kept in a state of "arrested decay". Again beautiful shots.
