Welcome to Mojave Underground April. Good to have you with us.

Yes welcome April. I have a friend named April but she is going to UVSC at the moment. Dont know how that would have any relation to what we are talking about on this forum but welcome anyway

Thanks!

Hey guys thanks for the welcome "blush" I feel so special
I hope I can get away from school long enough to go with you guys sometime.

[Jolth]

And since you are a photography major im sure we'd love to learn any tips from you and maybe your portfolio. Im sure you'd put us all to shame

Photo

I am ok photographer. I have a couple of cool pictures. Maybe I will post a few on here so you guys can give me some tips. :P
I would like to take pictures of ghost towns and stuff like you guys do. Now those are cool!

[Mike]

Hi April. Sounds like you could take advantage of our Photographer's Review section. Why don't you be the first to post some pics up and we'll all colaborate over it and offer our insights.
Ghost towns have so much potential. We are looking to get as many photographers with us as we can on a location. Helps us all get synergy.

Ghost town

Hey Im looking for a ghost town that is close to Provo so I can go shoot some pics without having to go so far away. You guys know of any?

[Jolth]

Nothing really comes to mind as a ghost townish place, but if you go up AF canyon there are some older buildings that the forest service use for storing equipment in that looks old and creepy....you could ask them if they could let you take pictures there....if anything else comes to mind ill let you know

[Mike]

The old provo castle sits just south of seven peaks on the hill. If you are daring to break through minor security, you could get some amazing photos with the right light. As far as actual ghost towns though, the nearest I am aware of would be Ophir, Jacob Ciry, and Eureka. Each about sixty miles away.

yeah.

Ive been there before. Shot some engagement photos at the castle for a friend. Thistle is pretty close isnt it? You guys did a shoot there not long ago.
