Opera House Motel

Death Valley Junction just outside the National Park. The entire town was bought in 1967 by a New York ballet dancer Marta Becket who decorated, hand painted the interior of the opera house and performed here until her death. This is the motel portion where we stayed. Textured with water photographed where endangered Pup fish live a short distance away in Nevada. The irony of a desert with very limited rainfall which is home to a fish that has survived the environment is amazing to me.
