4×5 Scans from my road trip

I finally got around to scanning my negatives from my zone class from last session, well more like Chris did the scanning… Thanks Chris!


Bisbee, AZ. I don’t know why I had the need to take this.


Tuscarora, NV. There were so many abandoned cars and trucks. I wondered about their lives before they passed.


Tuscarora, NV. This one looked so sad… it’s one of my favorite.


Tuscarora, NV. I had no idea what these things were when I first saw them. Later I found out they were old washing machines.


Elko, NV. It was a goner…

Road Trip: Metropolis, NV

We stop in Metropolis, NV which is a ghost town outside of Elko, NV. It used to be a pretty well populated town but now the only things left are pieces of an old school building. The weather was not on our side that day. It started off a beautiful day and then 30 minutes later hail the size of golf balls, awesome…


The remains of the school building and the weather being nice to us. 

Inside the building


The storm was a coming…


Chris trying to beat the storm. Storm won…

But there’s nothing better than rain clouds.

Road Trip: Tombstone, AZ

Right after our visit to Bisbee we passed Tombstone and had to stop. Come on now, how can you resist these cheesy tourist stops and also I wanted to see the OK Corral where it all went down!


Just a typical scene in Tombstone


I wanted his outfit. 


At Big Nose Kate Saloon where they played the movie Tombstone non stop.

Road Trip: Bisbee, AZ part 1

In my photo class my teacher gave the whole class 2 weeks off from school to use that time to shoot our project for the session. My friend Chris, Missy Lou, and I decided to take our own little road trip. Lots of driving and I got to cross over 4 different state lines. Bisbee was one of our stops in AZ, it used to be big mining city but it got suck dried. 

 Missy was a trooper the whole trip. She acted like she owned every place we went… She rules.
