Empire Mine State Park, Grass Valley, CA photoshoot

 

The Empire Mine is the site of the oldest, largest, and richest gold mine in California. From 1850 to its closing in 1956, it produced 5.8 million ounces of gold.
It is estimated that this represented only 20% of the available gold...80% remains.
I didn't found any gold myself...:) but the place is amazing. The tall trees offered a perfect soft light , combined  with the bright light spots created the optimal background effect.
