Canon EOS 5D MK2, Canon 70-200 lens
Bodie was a classic California boomtown, fueled by the gold rush of the 1850's. In the late 1800's it had almost 2000 buildings and a population of somewhere between 5000 - 7000 people. Bodie now has less than 200 buildings remaining, but this is still enough to make it one of the largest ghost towns in the United States. The town is a California State Historic Park and also a National Historic Landmark, and it hosts about 200,000 visitors every year. The Methodist Church can be seen at the far left, and the Standard Mill is in the center background.
