at 50mm, 1/125 f/8.0, ISO 100, hand held. Bodie Ghost Town H.P., United States.

Bodie è una città fantasma californiana situata a circa un centinaio di chilometri da Bishop. In origine era un piccolo centro minerario, tuttavia la scoperta di numerosi filoni d'ora ha determinato, nel ventennio tra il 1860 e 1880, una rapida espansione della città. Sono giunti nel paese, guidati dalla prospettiva di un facile guadagno, numerosi minatori, avventurieri, assassini, ladri, prostitute tanto da fare di Bodie una "sin city" con il triste resoconto di quasi un cadavere al giorno. Con l'esaurirsi dei filoni d'oro è iniziato il declino della città,distrutta quasi completamente da un incendio nel 1932. Oggi rimane circa il 5% della centro originale, "fantasma" dell'antico splendore e degrado di Bodie.

Bel BN. To my taste I would have eliminated the wires you see in the upper right corner. Greetings, Ivan

Thanks Victor, Anna and Henry :-)

for Victor and Henry,
Initially I wanted to make a picture that would befit the concept of Bodie town as "cursed", with a very aggressive conversion marked by contrasts, in the end I preferred a more neutral BW to evoke the memory of a city of the West and of a time now lost ( Henry apologizes if I steal the words, but I could not better describe the photo).

I go against the current and say I'd like to see it with the original colors that are very far west, marked yellow color "sun burns"

A ghost town.
Beautiful coversione in BN.
I do not mind the wires as they are part of the wooden stakes.
