Have you ever been to a Ghost town? I was once. To be frank it is a terrible picture. It is so sad to see abandoned houses, empty streets and squares. The windows in these houses are broken. The leaves fallen from the trees are everywhere.
The Ghost town is look like a scene of the movie. You are waiting for some aliens to appear.
I made some pictures of the town. I had a double feeling when I was leaving the Ghost town. I was sad and excited. I thought about those who had lived there. How did they leave their homes? Where are they now?
