Description
Back to the ghost town again, (& the old cam again)
On the hike up the hill to the wagon I posted a few days back -I passed by an old water tower climbed in and out- got stuck in it-lost my high heel- recovered- LOL and then found what you see in the shot
- A beautiful hillside and then an old falling apart railing...
And a power chord that was seemingly hidden behind the rail.
The line of it...caught my eye...
I think I took 100 shots at the Ghost town that day - many of you have seen them.
This one was my personal favorite for unspoken reasons.
Maybe I just liked the curve of that Calico canyon... but it think it was the power line that caught my eye and it lit up in the sun... and the colored hills were amazing -the rocks even sparkled in places like diamonds and gold.. ( think lots of it was fools gold).. I knew when i looked up at the hills why they named the town Calico....(to see it better look at my old wagon shot in my gallery)
OH Hard to explain all the emotion of that day.
SO this picture here-isn

I think I got more of a kick out this photo with your hilarious stories on how you got this. Sometimes people just don't realize hard some images are to obtain and obstacles we have to endure to get them. I've read your story a few times and each time it makes me laugh...The image it's self is worthy of the trouble, but I can't stop smiling when I look at it...Great stuff here Kimmers! Aloha~
