Description
Found this old fishing boat yesterday...
The title fits both the boat and the former marina we were exploring on the eastern edge of California's Salton Sea.
The Salton Sea once was a thriving place full of promise and fish. Today it is a "poster child" for mismanaged water resources. Should you want to know more, just google Salton Sea.

I googled. Horrific. A stark image.
Great shot Bill. It looks cool in Black & White and this picture says it all. Like your comment about mismanaged water resources. The Salton Sea looked somewhat better in 1964 when I first was in the area, but it has steadily gone down since then!. Are you getting any wind there? If you do, don't drive to the Yuma area or your RV will get sand blasted!
Very impressive image here Bill. :-)
Excellent shot! I feel like I am a stowaway on you and your wife's adventures! Love the BW as it adds character and makes it look old.
I think the high contrast works well with this Bill.
The clarity is spot on Bill - a super mono.
Great choice on the B&W - a stunning shot.
A really high quality shot, Bill.
Fantastic sense of drama! I like the lines, the strong light, and the way you used the composition to divide the space. Nice!!
marvellous picture
The dramatic sky and high contrast really gives this a scifi feeling. Well done!
As soon as I laid eyes on this image, I thought this is outstanding photography - I am impressed, the boat really pops out of the screen, the composition is faultless IMHO and what would be better than B&W ? - nothing ! this really shines Bill, fine effort BB
The B&W suites the starkness of this abandoned place perfectly, Bill! A great photo and statement, my friend! Let's hope this isn't a look at the future of this planet.
outstanding BW
Wonderful capture and I agree that this is perfect to show the starkness
wonderful pov
Abandonment seems so cold and the B&W emphasizes that...well done!
Outstanding POV great in B&W!!
Excellent pic, I googled too!!!!
Nice work Bill!~
Good idea of B&W and excellent lighting.
Superb capture and post work Bill. God bless.
What a lovely composition, leads the eye right in there and an image well suited to monochrome too Bravo !
Love the sharp lighting contrast and perspective in this winner.
Wonderfully clear shot, crisp and full of detail even for black and white. Very well done Bill Rob
