The Wilderness Act of 1964
“A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain.”
The Desolation Wilderness was established in 1969.
Previously known as the Desolation Valley Primitive Area.
Went fishing in Hólmarnir near Kirkjubæjarklaustur, east of Iceland.
The surroundings of the water stream is all in black sand with mountains in the distance, it's quite strange to be fishing in this landscape.
Fire lookout Daniel Otero uses an anemometer to measure the due point and relative humidity. High numbers reduce the chance of fires, which occur most often as a result of lightning strikes.

2nd in a series (thanks, Dad!) with this mystifying school house. I like how desolate it feels....under the shadow of a very mysterious tree. Original watercolor size 11x14
My 7th shoot for Major Project, for which I am concentrating on the odd or different things contained in the area around the N11 road!!!!
This image was taken just outside of Gorey, in County Wexford, on a medium format hasselblad using fuiji 100 Reala colour neg. There is such incredable detial in medium format!
This is somewhat close to the Whiting Bros Motel sign, so it's possible these were their gas pumps.

I found this plant, almost at its end of its time, but I love it almost more like this than in full bloom. It grows in the middle of the mountains on a really rocky terrain where there is not much to take energy from. I wanted to capture that in this photo.

A moment of light to guide us through the desolate wilderness on top of the Beinn Eighe mountain range.
Often times, our path leads us to locations that are not along the route we originally choose.
Each day, twisting and winding through our lives, the path deposits us at some point along the way.
Today, we disembark at one of the most common (howbeit unwanted) of destinations, Desolation Station.
Population, well, everyone ... at one time or another.

A lone soldier sitting on a fractured piece of old-fashioned farm machinery, with a waterproofed rifle perched on his shoulder.
Much of the literature, music and art that emerged from the conflict, concentrated on how the human race had suddenly become tragically out of tune with nature and the land, and that the world had been fractured. The collage of destruction captured here, featuring destroyed farming equipment from an earlier and happier time, is perhaps the perfect illustration of this Modernist theme of alienation, fragmentation and gate crashing arrival of a new age?

Sad, but beautiful. Nature's cruelty in all its glory.
This was taken at False Bay nature reserve near St. Lucia, along the Elephant Coast of KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. They've had a drought there for the last 3 years (as well as having had the mouth to the St. Lucia estuary closed due to an oil spill).
Normally, this place would be teeming with wildlife. Now, it's just a husk of its former glory, the water dried up and the shells and water-life dead.

Hosted by Desolation Outdoors, Sam's Anchor Cafe, Lyndasue Johnson, Bradley Real Estate and the Tiburon Chamber of Commerce, this was a fun race on July 11, 2015 with courses suitable for beginners, intermediate and advanced standup paddle boarders.
The races started and ended at Sam's Anchor Café in downtown Tiburon and proceeded along the Tiburon waterfront with incredible views of San Francisco, Angel Island and the Golden Gate Bridge.
