Black and white photograph of steps and columns in the ruins of the old Rhyolite Bank in the ghost town of Rhyolite, Nevada.

While photographing some of these old, abandoned buildings I was struck by how much they reminded me of far more ancient and famous ruins.

Exteriors walls of the ruins of the Rhyolite School. Rhyolite, Nevada. Oddly, the school seems to be one of the better preserved structures in this Nevada ghost town – even the banks have suffered more over the years. Not to suggest that it is in great shape – the roof is gone along with all of the windows and doors – but the walls are still standing for the most part.
