White Knob Head House
I visited this awesome old structure in the ghost town of White Knob while on a tour put on in conjunction with Idaho Archaeology & Historic Preservation Month. The tour was led by the Mayor of nearby Mackay Idaho, Wayne Olsen.
This is the Headhouse where the ore was brought from the mine and readied to go down the hill to Mackay.MackayPhotographyTraveleastidahosouthhistoryhistoricWhite Knobghost townghosttownminingbeautifulwallartLandscaperuinsdecayprintsMountainWood MaterialNatureAbandonedOutdoorsScenicsRural SceneSkyNo PeopleOldMountain RangeHouseBuilt StructureCloud SkySnowArchitectureSummerspringoldwest

Union 76
This is my favorite shot from the trip to Sumpter. It looks like an old oil tanker trailer. The thing that strikes me about it is that it was bridging the worlds of horse drawn and machinery. I could easily see this being pulled by horses to take the fuel or oil to the equipment. It may be not that old but it has the look.

Sassy Cassie
Cassie loves Little House on the Prairie, so we thought it would be fun to do a themed shoot with her at a little house on the prairie. Our daughter Allie did a great job of making the dress for her. This was taken with a 1950's Zeiss Contaflex 85mm 2.8 lens adapted to my Sony a7r2. You can see Allie's crafting blog at https://aspiringallie.wordpress.com .
The painting effect was done with Jixipix Impresso: http://jixipix.evyy.net/c/261691/164110/3023portraithatbonnetchilddressfashiongirlpioneerprairievintagelittle house on the prairiecraftphotographypaintingjixipiximpresso

Mining The Stars
Old mining equipment under the Milky Way in Nevada City Montana. It was really dark and quiet and then some animal chased something else in my direction while growling like a cougar or something. I ran away.
