Rhyolite Ghost Town  by jgpittenger

Rhyolite Ghost Town

I'm disappointed to see that if I correct the lens distortion I lose the decaying structures in the bottom right so I guess I have to live with the tilt. I love the feeling of this spot and the contrast to the beautiful clouds in the distance. Sorry about the mass upload today but I wanted to catch up before going back to work tomorrow.
Beautiful

Rhyolite is on my list for a return visit. It was a tough place for me to get the images I wanted, because of a very contrasty day. This looks like you had the opposite problem, with flat light, and you handled it extremely well. The composition and details are very nice here with infinite depth from buildings to mountains.
