Rock-A-Hoola - a photo on Flickriver

Rock-A-Hoola

            182 second exposure, green gelled flashlight, LED stick light used to light from both the right and left sides (since there was virtually no moonlight and who knows when I may get back here again), natural big ass flashlight used to light the upper part of the sign from the back side.

Entryway to the now abandoned Rock-A Hoola waterpark out in the middle of the California desert.  I did take some artistic license (can I say/do that?).  Because this place has been pretty heavily vandalized and tagged I did photoshop out most of where it has been tagged because I don't want to give the perps any feel good moments by having their handywork forever immortalized on the internet.  As you can see, thats all I photoshopped since the debris is still laying everywhere, just like it was when I got there.

Click on the image, because it's best BIG on BLACK!!!
