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

The framing of ridges stretching all the way to Boney Mountain in the Santa Monicas was quite a sight! Unfortunately, Boney has been burning this week due to the Woolsey Fire... and the Angeles National Forest's fire danger has just been raised to "extreme."

To get to this beach, you need to walk about two miles from the nearest parking lot. It doesn't seem to get too much traffic, but I did see footprints, so someone ventures out here.

Just beside Lachung river in Yumthung this tree was kept desolate...just waiting to get perished over the passage of time. Handheld
A positively amazing scene I found returning to the car after staying late at a concert on the Camden Waterfront. In the background is the Central Philadelphia skyline (well, part of it).

On the way to Kodachadri Hills, near Shimoga, Karnataka, India. This was peak summer and the water had largely dried up in most parts of South India.

This farmstead stands perched on a clifftop, isolated from the nearest road by a steep, rocky slope unsuitable even for most 4x4s.
Another shot showing how massive this place is. I can almost imagine it running at full steam. The commotion and chaos.
For a history and other photos of the Pullman Yard:
Having staked out its claim many generations ago, an old aspen sits tight and awaits the arrival of spring.
A first image taken for the purpose of testing an OM-10 and a Zuiko 28mm f/2.8 lens. I am not a great fan of the OM-10, and in truth it was purchased only for the lens that it had attached to it. At the moment it serves as a convenient backup while my OM-1N is out for a complete CLA.

February 15, 2015: I took this picture pulled over by the side of the road next to Sholan Farms apple orchard. This was a very windy day, so I couldn't keep my camera lens clean. I took this picture before the wind flared up and got the lens dirty; unfortunately, there are lens glares.
Driving down this road was intense. The wind was blowing the snow across the road so that I couldn't see more than three feet in front of me!

Let's take a pause from natural landscapes: here we are in a old destroyed house in what, long time ago, was a military base. Now nature is mixed with the ruins, creating a deep sense of desolation.
Prendiamoci una pausa dai paesaggi naturali: qui siamo in una vecchia casa distrutta dentro a quella che, tempo fa, era una gloriosa base militare. Ora la natura è mescolata alle rovine, creando un profondo senso di desolazione.
