Question Abandoned Salton Sea shoot?

Does anyone want to do a photo shoot at the Salton Sea anytime soon?

Abandoned Salton Sea - a set on Flickr

I was there a week ago and want to go back again soon. Maybe even do a nightitme shoot - though I don't want to be there at night alone.

Sounds like a July group shoot opportunity. I'd be up for it if you're willing to go in July. Or will it be too hot by then?

Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 Lovin' it. I could glue it to my camera and be happy.
Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 It's the older model w/o the AF motor and it focuses FAST. It's just like the 17-50, only longer.
Nikkor 50mm f1.8d <------creammmmmy

I've been wanting to go there for a while. I'll keep checking here to see if anyone else wants to go. Thanks for the suggestion!

Oohhh Yeah!!! Carpool! Marshall your driving!

I just checked out your whole flickr.. I didn't know the abandonment was that in depth, I thought it was just a couple of trailors. Scary!

I'll volunteer my wagon as one of the transports. If we get models, they get dibs.
Who's bringin' the beer and bbq?

Re: Abandoned Salton Sea shoot?

The models will just get in the way...lol I soo want a shot of those powerlines in the water. Endless photoshop opportunities can be done with it, like someone had mentioned in a comment on his flickr, its almost like a water world.

EDIT: I was up all night on WiKi reading about the history of the Salton Sea, One thing that blew me away was the organic and industrial sewage that gets put into it from the "New River" pretty sad.

I'd be up for a trip out there. Might be a little too hot in July though.

Re: Abandoned Salton Sea shoot?

I don't mind the heat. As long as everyone brings plenty of water and sunscreen. I went to school out in Imperial Valley towards the end of summer a few years back so I'm used to it.
