Standard Mill at Bodie, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
The Standard Mill at Bodie (shown here reflected in an old window) was used to process the gold and silver ore from the mines.
The rather harsh side lighting on a seasonal water slough and the mill itself is from the full moon.
[Nikon D300, 18-200mm VR zoom lens at 26mm (39mm in 35mm terms), two exposures (one at approximately 240 seconds, or three minutes, the other at approximately 480 seconds, or six minutes), both exposures at f/8 and ISO 100, tripod mounted.]
