In the past century, dreams have flourished in the deserts of California, fueled by gold, war, optimism and wealth, only to later be abandoned. Homes, mines, utopian societies, railroads, airports, airplanes, cars, gas stations, and more were eventually forsaken.

In the past century, dreams have flourished in the deserts of California, fueled by gold, war, optimism and wealth, only to later be abandoned. Homes, mines, utopian societies, railroads, airports, airplanes, cars, gas stations, and more were eventually forsaken. Already a place of mystery, the desert seems even more so at night as shadows wander, winds whisper, and stars slowly swim across the sky. Explore with the author as he illuminates these forgotten locales while creating haunting long exposures of several minutes or more, slowing the passage of time into a single image. If you are a fan of creative photography, American history, abandoned sites, or have an insatiable curiosity for travel, Abandoned Southern California: The Slowing of Time invites you on a surrealistic night journey.
Ken Lee is a night photographer. He drives long hours in a dusty car listening to weird music, stays out all night creating photos, gets dirty, hangs out with other creative sleep-deprived weirdos, sees the stars drift across the sky, and always finds the best taco stands. Ken has been exploring the Southwestern United States as well as parts of the East Coast for over six years, brandishing a camera, tripod, and colored flashlight. He especially loves creating night photos of abandoned historical places, unique features, and beautiful landscapes. These are experiences that he absolutely cherishes. His images have appeared in National Geographic books, Omni magazine, The Los Angeles Times, Westways magazine, and many other publications.
