    Default Marysville....a Montana Ghost Town

    So we spent one morning at this really neat ghost town named Marysville. Lots of abandoned stores, houses cars and stuff. I could have poked around there for much, much longer than I was able but it is hard to go places with a group of people when you are the only photographer and not the driver. I got voted out in favour of going back to town for hotdogs...and when we got there the store was closed. Needless to say, I will be back for more shots and hopefully see Princess the dog again!
    So here's a link to some info about the town:
    Welcome to the Marysville House in beautiful Marysville, Montana

    ....and a few shots of some of the houses:

    Cool set! They're all really cool but I love the last one. That old car looks really neat!

    they are all lovely with that unique Casil perspective. I do agree with Iggy that the best is the car shot!

    I know....hot dogs were not my first choice...so much more I could have shot there.

    Good to know Matt...will do. I'm about due for a trip to Dorothy again soon so I'll ping you and maybe we can head up there.


    And thanks for the nice comments B (you would so love it there), Iggy and EdG
    I think #3 is my fave as well.

    Here's a couple more from the visit...
    The home of the first Doctor in town:


    The steps going up to the second level in the house in shot 2 of the 1st post...kind of creepy cuz if you look closely, it almost looks like there is something going up the steps. I think they are lens flares and I removed the other one above it in post but it did remind me of feet climbing the stairs!
