Thank you, excited about the new book. Yeah, it looks like this scene from a long time ago. And one that looks so inviting.

There is a ghost town in Nevada called Nelson where they have this abandoned stuff. I do find a lot of abandoned stuff around the desert as well.
I illuminated it from the outside and inside with a warm white light. To illuminate the interior, I carefully shot light through several windows on the back side. I say "carefully" because it was a little challenging to avoid shining the light straight into the camera lens. I illuminated the exterior from several different angles. All of this was done with a handheld light. In fact, I was there teaching a night photography workshop and was teaching light painting while I was there.

Thanks! I did post a photo of a church in the mountains of Nevada earlier today. Beautiful setting, that was.
I appreciate your comments!
