The oh-so-ironic Lake Aloha in California's Desolation Wilderness. Despite the raw and unforgiving appearance of this area, I found a powerful kind of calming energy to it as I sat and watched the sunset turn into a starry night.

I just realized people from an Arabic and Hebrew culture (+?) will interpret this picture very differently than me, since they read from right to left. Interesting.. Maybe I should start including two descriptions, one for the West and one for the East? ;)

The Abandoned Brick Factory (click here to see all the shots from the abandoned Brick Factory)
Built in the early 1920s, this Hoffmann-type kiln produced bricks until the middle of the 60s. As of now (March 2013) the factory and the surrounding buildings are going to be demolished soon: a shopping centre and some warehouses will take its place.

La Fabbrica di Mattoni Abbandonata (clicca qui per vedere tutte le foto della fabbrica dei mattoni)
Costruita nei primi anni ’20, questa fornace di tipo Hoffmann ha prodotto mattoni sino alla metà degli anni ’60. Ad oggi (marzo 2013) è destinata alla demolizione insieme al resto degli edifici circostanti: al loro posto sorgeranno un piccolo centro commerciale e alcuni capannoni.

As if the beach was not full of desolation enough, darkness came creeping up from the edge of the earth to lay claim to sea and shore.

The mysterious Valley of Desolation is the best place to experience the plains of the Camdeboo and get the real feel of what the Karoo is about. When the sky is clear you will be able to see as far as your eye can.

i finally made it this year to the amazing location that is Bombo Headland in Kiama... the landscape is just something straight out of some alien movie with the rugged basalt rocks amazingly sculpted by various forces... i went for some b&w shots because the weather was somewhat bleak and uncooperative...

So its 4am so Im a bit tired and will write a description and give this a title tomorrow. I think I may write a short story to go along with this using my concept/idea for this photo too? We shall see...
So I am not in the story writing mood today- possibly another time. However the title will make more sense with a story so I guess I probably really should try to write one sometime soon.
Anyways, the colours in this are not really changed much at all to be quite honest, they were just so beautiful in my opinion. But this was taken in Colorado, where I was for the past week. It was so much fun and I just had forgotten how stunningly beautiful CO is! The mountains, the forests, the wildlife, the trees, everything! Every spare minute I had when my family would go back to the condo I would run up the mountains and shoot in the forests and along the trails and at the top! Although I never had much time because we were out and about pretty much the entire trip. Yet still I managed to squeeze in a lot of shoots in the, I believe, three times I went out to shoot. Each time was between 1-3 hours but that included hiking there and back so not a lot of time to shoot- but in all that I think I did like 10 concepts, give or take one or two. Not sure if Ill post them all because Im not sure if theyll all turn out. I was super psyched to shoot this dragonfly photo using my sister but I never got to do that! Ill have to somewhere in KS soon- I need to hunt for some good locations for that though. Not sure who I will use for it? Maybe Mikala or maybe one of the Maddies?
I also realized right after posting this it is my 3rd photo in a row where Im in a white button down shirt with a tie so HA! Im terribly sorry about that! I suppose I should take a quick break from that wardrobe. Its just that it fits so many concepts so well!
Although the when it was built in the XIX century it was the largest hospital in Southern Africa, it was scary as hell when we found out it was still in operation, and we spent a night under their care.
For 700 years, Doel stood near Antwerp along the Scheldt River in Belgium, and includes a home that once belonged to the family of painter Peter Paul Reubens. As Antwerp expanded in the 20th century, its port needed more space, and Doel quickly became a target for demolition. Trying to force residents out, the government scheduled demolitions multiple times, but were beaten by popular protests from the 1970s through the 1990s.
But despite the will of the people, Doel could not be saved and in 1999, the town was officially scheduled for complete demolition. In 2007, a campaign group called Doel 2020 set into motion a plan to ensure Doel’s survival by turning it into a haven for street artists. Since that time, residents have trickled out as artists have made their way in. The increasingly abandoned town became the perfect playground for street artists from across Europe to debut their works around Doel.
Today, there are only about 25 inhabitants left, all of whom are bravely flaunting mandates that they vacate their homes immediately. Meanwhile the town has been transformed into a post-apocalyptic artistic paradise thanks to the murals covering each and every building. Despite these people’s stubborn refusal to leave, the government plans to continue with demolition, at which point all traces of Doel, from residents’ homes to the the living street art, will be lost forever.
