Salton City Beach and Westmorland.
I cant remember exactly where this is precisely except that it is in what is left of what never was Salton City; a ghost city which appears on google maps but is in fact not there save for graded gravel driveways which would have been streets and skeletal framework of telephone poles which hold aloft wires that are functionless and power or communicate nothing.
There is a section if the city which was once populated by trailer homes and has since been eviscerated by weather and salt from the dying lake on which the city is named. Being there, the places is eerily silent and is reminiscent of of the opening scenes in Robert Wise's film depiction of Micheal Chrichton's 'The Andromeda Strain' where a small town is wiped out by an alien contaminant.
--I dont understand why so many people are asking me to delete this picture? Whats the problem? The image is part of a documentary about the area, this particular image is one of three taken in close proximity to eachother, i dont have the time to physically scan and put them all up at one time, but asking me to delete my images is just fucking obnoxious. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
