Stripes Away

Stripes Away

The desolate back streets of George AFB, where the highway department practices making stripes, and they shoot Ken Block videos.  Pure moonlight for 3 minutes.

It Watches

There are hundreds of abandoned structures in the sprawling George AFB tract, and many are duplexes and apartments.  Thousands of people must have lived here at one time, all watched over by this imposing water tower, blinking away on the south side of the base.  Full moon for 3-minutes with red, blue and lime light.

Whole clusters of homes are now burnt out shells, in the abandoned George AFB housing district. 3-minutes of full moon with red, purple and white light.

The Sky Inside

The Sky Inside

The abandoned housing tract at the former George AFB has taken a beating since the last time I was there. Some homes are burned, and some are just gone. Full moon for 3 minutes, with purple, red and blue from the Protomachiness flashlight.

North Edwards Requiem (tired)

North Edwards Requiem (tired)

Gas station at the North Edwards exit on Highway 58 between Mojave and Barstow.  Shot about 3AM during the June 2014 full moon, the site was cleared a few months later.  There’s 16:9 version of this set up already floating around the web, but without the tires.  I unearthed this take while archiving images into storage and realized I’ve […]

The Weather Eye

More on the ’56 Nash, here’s the retro-futuristic dash. The lack of steering wheel makes it even more Buck Rogers. Really high quality materials in here, this was a lux car in it’s day. Of course it’s all filthy and rotten now. Lit with red, blue and green Protomachines flashlight. The bucket-style glove box was […]

Gnashing Time

Gnashing Time

1956 Nash Ambassador, still on the racetrack infield at Pearsonville.  Fun to revisit this car with the fisheye and 2017 skills.  Purple, red and lime from the Protomachines flashlight.  And 150-seconds of the full moon.
