Abandoned Mining Camp, Colorado.

A few years ago, I moved from the East Coast of the United States to Colorado. As a newcomer to the West, I became fascinated by the ruins and rock art left behind by ancient native peoples. I began to travel throughout the mountain and desert West to visit and photograph these haunting sites. In the process, I have come across many interesting and seldom visited places, such as this abandoned mining camp. The contrast between these decaying structures and the harsh landscape they inhabit seemed most striking and evocative. I hope you enjoy them.
