Oh Bill, I love these. I had forgotten about Hornitos and what a haven for you. It's just the kind of thing - I as well - like to shoot. You used HDR perfectly - WOW what a way to start the morning.


Thanks so much Rowedean! It's a neat little speck with a lot of history!

Hornitos is Spanish meaning "Little Ovens."
The Town of Hornitos is just a few miles from Mariposa, California which is where I live. Mariposa is Spanish for "Butterfly." During the Gold Rush days of the 49'ers, Hornitos was a bustling community. Here, the locals baked bread in little ovens and, by way of wagons, delivered fresh bread daily to the miners in Mariposa and surrounding towns and camps. Today it's a mere dot on most maps but holds on to its rich history; maintaining original stores, homes and ovens.

I'm green... I'd love to visit that ghost town. Beautiful shots.

Great shots! Interesting information regarding the town. I am surprised that it is still standing.


Thanks Tazzy! It'll be there in 100 more years!

Jim, it's not a Ghost town! People live there and work ranches full time! Thanks for stopping by!

Looks like a very neat spot to spend the day with a camera.
