Ghost towns always turned me on, and was my passion. One of this days Im planning on going to Pripyat near Chernobyl. But this weekend was just Jerome, AZ.

Interesting - judging by the presence of smoke in #1, the ghosts are alive and well :D

I love how there's a brand new headlight in that last shot.

The first shot might be better if you cropped out the top of the photo so the viewer can concentrate on the town more easily.

wow, that's a goldmine of opportunities. I like the last shot.

Nice shots, I like #2. I wish the midwest had more to offer in the area of ghost towns, I think they're really cool. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places (or I'm too lazy to drive 3 hrs for photo ops.) I've also wanted to go to the Chernobyl site (have you seen the photographs from the motorcyclist that rode through the whole area, very cool?).
