Doug Meek > "Hiking Trail in Pico Canyon"

April 2013, Santa Susana Mountains, California
Canon EOS 5D MK2, Zeiss ZE 50mm lens

This canyon is located 2 miles behind my home, and I've hiked it many hundreds of times.  I love being able to get lost in the wilderness in the middle of overpopulated Los Angeles County.  California truly is a beautiful state.

Doug Meek > "Kelso Train Depot"

December 2010, Kelso, California
Canon EOS 5D MK2, Canon TS-E 24mm lens

Kelso is a ghost town in the middle of California's infamous Mojave Desert.  Kelso originally started out as a train depot in the 1920's, but it eventually grew into a town with the emergence of borax and iron mines in the vicinity.  Like most mining towns, Kelso disappeared as the mines quit producing.  The train depot officially closed in 1986.  Due to the valiant efforts of preservationists, the train depot was completely restored in 2005 after almost 20 years of severe deterioration in the harsh environment of the unforgiving Mojave.  The beautiful depot now serves as the primary visitor center for Mojave National Preserve.  It is well worth visiting.

August 2008, Sylmar, California

Pictured here in the hills above Santa Clarita, the Sayre wildfire occurred in a suburban Los Angeles neighborhood in November 2008. It caused the loss of 489 homes which is the most ever destroyed by fire in Los Angeles.

No computers, phones or traffic jams here. Just a bike and an open road leading somewhere. Where doesn't matter - just take the road.
