Rustic Mountain Outhouse in Independence, Colorado

Colorado outhouse photo, of a primitive rustic privy located in the alpine ghost town of Independence, Colorado.
Last September I took a trip to Aspen, Colorado. On the way up to the Continental Divide east of Aspen there is a little ghost town called Independence. I took this photograph of the outhouse with a great view there. It could be one of the highest outhouses in the USA at 10,830 feet elevation.  I did it in two versions; color, and black and white. I like both versions but for different reasons. I think the color version has better depth of field. However, the black and white fits the subject matter. Which do you like?

I'll be sharing more Colorado photography shot in Independence soon! Thanks in advance for your comments and shares.

    1. Thanks Pam! I like the color a bit better too. I think the DOF is better. Thanks for your comment!
