About the Book
Bodie is a ghost town in the Bodie Hills east of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Mono County, California, about 75 miles southeast of Lake Tahoe.
Bodie is an original mining town from the late 1800's. What's left today stands in a state of "arrested decay" and is maintained by the California State Parks System, who took over the town in 1962 to make it a State Historic Park. Only about five percent of the buildings it contained during its 1880 heyday still remain.

About the Creator

I had a deep love for photography back in the late fifties, but never had an opportunity to develop it until early in 2002. Because of other commitments it was placed on the back burner. Now I am in the process of rekindling it around Photoshop and other software tools as well as vast array of digital photographic equipment. I have explored landscape and candid/street photography as I have traveled throughout the United States as well as Europe and Africa.
