Documenting Glass Beach

A place that has been on my bucket list since I first heard of it, Glass Beach is a fantastically weird little gem on the California Coast.

The beach is covered in multi-coloured pebbles of sea glass; a result of its past life as a dumping site for a nearby glass factory. Now a major tourist attraction, there are three beach sites accessible to the public. I spent a late afternoon exploring one & created this (very) short documentary about the beach & its history.

Starting Fresh

The Salton Sea, one of the least fresh places in California.

The Salton Sea, one of the least fresh places in California.

As I learn to think more visually, & explore the world through my camera lens as opposed to through poetic ramblings, I'm transitioning to this imaged based blog.

This will be a place about travel, photography, the weird & wild. Stay tuned.
