I wanted to share a bunch of Death Valley photos from my trip last week, but my album shares aren’t working at the moment, so here’s a shot from the return trip through Nevada.
Since that visit in 2013, I’ve returned to catch the mine in better light, like this shot from 2018:
Scouting locations for future Nevada photography workshops.
As of 2019, now we’ve managed to arrange interior tours with the mine’s owner. Here’s a shot from inside looking out:
Contact me for details on when we’ll revisit. Following the success of our Nevada photography workshops in 2018 & 2019, we’ll probably return in Fall 2019 or May 2020, but in the meantime we’ve had a request to add Central Nevada mining towns to our Bodie workshop in late August 2019! We may add another Nevada workshop itinerary for fall 2019 as well: https://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/nevada-photography-workshops/

great picture +Jeff Sullivan
Wicked! +Jeff Sullivan, if you can spare a minute, take a look at the comment on my reshare of this in about 5 minutes.
Stop by Death Valley Junction at all?
nice photo!
Reminds me of Mackenna's Gold!!
Yeah!Gregory Peck will certainly love to visit this site!!
We didn't make it that far south on this trip +James Russell. I'd like to see the show at the Amargosa Opera House sometime.
+Jeff Sullivan God knows how old Marta Beckett is by now. Don't wait too long. My dad used to take me up there a lot in the 1980s. He would help her restoring the place. I remember once we went near the Hoover Dam to get some theater chairs someone had donated to the opera house. I need to get back down there. It's been 25 years or so, at least.
+Jeff Sullivan True!! It was Arizona where the movie was shot, right? Nevertheless rugged, desert terrain!! Plus a gold mine! Brings forth certain scenes!!
would have been perfect for todays theme: #wildwestwednesday
look like kgf in india-karnataka
Spellbound…………
I need Gold… Hehe

Great photo, +Jeff Sullivan – as much as I enjoy your "pure" landscapes, I also enjoy pictures that document the past.
Can't wait to see album shots.

Hi Jon, I caught a much better sunset picture of it when passing through in 2017: http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/2018/05/18/central-nevada-photography-workshop-scouting-highlights/
Did you notice the restoration of the Rustler #2 Mine. It’s a museum inside also…
I’ll be in the area May 4-9 and would love to bring some photographers around with me!
Hi Jeff, I hope that you got some great shots at Goldfield a couple of weeks ago. I hope that you came back to see the mines lit up at night !! Jon.
Thanks, i did get some nice photos, will upload them to Facebook Flickr, etc in the coming days and weeks. I’m already planning return trips!
Very nice recent photograph’s of the Nevada Mines !!! Great work Jeff!!!!!! . Jon.
Still working on the files… I added a Milky Way photo to the top and a night time-lapse video to the bottom of this post. Yesterday I submitted several photos to the Great Nevada Picture Hunt contest. Winning photos get featured in Nevada Magazine!
Good luck on the contest Jeff !!
