Out in the desert even bush fires go unnoticed


Mojave, July 2020

Moving along with my desert project now after finding several goodies in the past month or so.
With this one its all about finding stuff, often by chance, that couldn't really be repeated.
I purposefully make no notes on areas I have been with no directions or maps and never visit the same site twice. My theory behind this is to create a 'snapshot' of the desert rather than seeking out a particular location and hanging around for the light to change. Of course I would be a big fat liar if I said that's what I originally planned...

Bit daft really...


The days of scouting out derelict buildings are probably over for me now, but here and there I still pop in a smelly wasp infected hole of a place (see above) never really knowing to find.
There was a time when everyone seemed to be 'urban x-ing', hoping for and abandoned hospital full of wheelchairs, or an old cinema with the seats and screen still intact.
I think it was all about the thrill of it, the photographs didn't really matter in the end, they were more proof that you were there... Bit daft really....
