Description

Animas Forks is a small ghost town just outside of Silverton, Colorado. It was founded in 1880 and was a silver mining town (Elevation 11,160). Only a few of the old cabins are still standing. This shot was from within one of the cabins looking out. I metered for the outside view and used a flash to illuminate the walls.

Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: -0.67, ExposureTime: 1/80 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 28.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II
