Description
Salton Sea : Bombay Beach
No lake covers more acreage in California than the Salton Sea. Once billed as a desert resort for those escaping frigid winter climates, the area quickly declined by the late 1970's following a series of natural and ecological disasters. What remains is an alluring patchwork of communities checkered by the infrastructure of livelihoods that persist, and the ghostly artifacts left behind by residents who've long since moved elsewhere.
Here I found decaying pieces of old dock leading to the water from Bombay Beach.

Love the contrast between the textures of the posts and smoothness of the water and sky, very striking in black and white.
