Very nice I like the where the grils are taking a selfie and the young man is looking at them.

Great shots. I feel like I have been there even though I haven't.

Thanks GeneB, it's a pretty unique Ghost Town as it was built on the original site of a producing gold mine.

These are excellent shots. What exposure did you use and were you on a tripod?

Thanks for the reply Dennis, I had to select these shots from several. The editing was a bit of a challenge though.

Thanks rdemarco52, Camera and settings: My camera is the Canon M6 mark ll shooting with ISO 2,000. f/8. Aperture Priority so the camera set the shutter duration. Editing was done using Affinity Photo ver. 2.3. The final shot, of the train returning to the station, was taken with my Pixel 7 cellphone (handheld). A sturdy tripod was used throughout.

I'm sorry. You posted that. Being in aperture priority, the camera chose the shutter speed. Great set.
