This was an 8 hour exposure I took while camping out at Animas Forks, just up the Animas Forks river from both Silverton and the Old 100. The "lines" in the sky are actually stair trails. This ghost town is actually better known for other buildings, especially the two-story Duncan house. This is one of my favorite towns. Great setting, lots of buildings. As a photographer, I wrestled with how to photograph this town. I tend to want to find subject matter that I can isolate and work with. None of the other photos had the same appeal to me. Shooting this scene at night was a perfect take away for me. Plus, I got a good night's sleep beside my camera as this photo was being taken.
