Val Valandani is a photographer working on the San Francisco Peninsula.  Her evocative images suggest that someone was just there and has left behind something undone.  She has exhibited at the Los Gatos Art Museum and other venues.

"Found in Bodie, California, an historic gold mining town that was abandoned in the 1890s.   This is my award-winning photo.  It has been on tour since 1989 with the work of fifty-nine other women photographers throughout the USA and to England, Sweden and Italy to date."  Val Valandani, December 3, 1991
