Abandoned Salton Sea: Dystopian Panoramas [Paperback]

Captures the eerie beauty and environmental decay of the Salton Sea through stunning panoramas.Abandoned Salton Sea: Dystopian Panoramas presents a journey into this unique Southern California region. An initial glimpse of the Salton Sea and its environs is a surreal experiencethe landscape is at once unfamiliar, deserted, dramatic, silent, dystopian. All of us are fascinated by hidden stories, and there are thousands of veiled tales of loss tucked within the Salton Sea footprint. The Salton Sea panorama shrieks for a mitigation lifeline to halt the escalating ecological damage cloaking this region. Mother Nature, nevertheless, still manifests technicolor displays of spectacular sunrises and sunsetsas if she must open her paint box and decorate the sky with a riot of color as overcompensation for environmental folly. Ghost-like towns, some unconventional artistic and off-the-grid enclaves; the dramatic morning and evening atmospheric canvases, natures last gasps; and beaches blanketed with pulverized fish bones and the detritus of once vibrant communities are some of the cautionary and curious tales presented within this Salton Sea collection.GB
