The recent fires in California inadvertently brought some closure to my mainly Southwestern exploration of the Mojave which began in January of this year. Returning to these places, most of which where the areas I knew best and first photographed, was most sobering.
I would not normally photographed a burnt out home, or an area where people have suffered, But unlike other natural/ man-made disasters, this one felt a little more personal having spent so much time there and feeling a real connection to the place.
Of course I will certainly return, but my next step is to venture further south to explore more of the magical Rain Shadow.
