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

When the volcano finished a weird desolate world emerged.

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.

This is an abandoned beach and rest area along the Salton Sea in Southern California.

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.

Cruising over to Homfray Lodge on the Pacific Bear

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.

Just a few blocks away from Comerica Park and Ford Field sits a bunch of desolate houses with boarded up windows.
