 It’s another image from my trip along the Route 66, Calico Ghost Town. What a great place for photography.

Calico Ghost Town, founded in 1881, is a historic silver mining town 10 miles north of Barstow, California. Since 1967 it has been a County Regional Park, dedicated to preserving the towns history, featuring stagecoach rides, gunfights, and actors in period costumes providing historical facts about Calico.

Good one. I'd still like it panned back even further. I'm noticing that most of these images are close up. 7
