Before my trip, I had a very busy and tiring month. The night before I hurriedly packed my gear and jumped on a plane to take me to the deserts the next morning. As I arrived at the ghost town before dark, peace descended as I began enjoying every moment. Yesterday was already in the distant past. Finally I could breathe. And as I was photographing this scene I imagined that these travelers might have felt the same way generations ago having escaped from a big city. This composition was chosen because of its simple bold elements. Light painting was used to accentuate textures and shadows in the entire scene. The yellow interior lights add a splash of color to draw attention.
