Artist's Description
The old Route 66 heads out into the Mohave east of the California/Arizona border.
Colorful names Like Amboy and Bagdad. Ghost towns, most had been vandalized by taggers and antique hunters. This service station in New Berry Springs was fenced and hopefully will be restored someday?
About Gary Warnimont
Hi my name is Gary Warnimont. I can't remember when I wasn't fascinated by photographs. I remember getting to use my dad's Polaroid Land 1 Camera . Grew up went to college, studied photography and art. Went to work as a catalog photographer. Still am a location advertising photographer. Asleep yet? I am posting my personal work on this site. It is about fun and boy hood vacation adventures. The documentation and restoration of roadside advertising folk art and museum artifacts is an on going project of mine. Hope you enjoy!!!

Seems like every time I set up one of these shots,I'm all alone,total silence. The next moment there is some goofy tourist with pink shorts standing right behind me with a cell phone camera shooting over my shoulder? No zombies so far.

Congrats Gary - your image has been featured in Wonders of Route 66 USA group - Great dark and mysterious image - would hate to run out of gas and walk 20 miles with a gas can only to find this! Plus you just know the zombies would be close behind...

Ellen and Udo ,yeah I will never get taggers and vandals,just say ,there are several stone arches in Virginia that were tagged by a young man named G.Washington in the 1700s. Apparently chopping down a cherry tree wasn't his only misdemeanor? My solution to fences is a camera with a flip out lcd viewer and a narrow enough lens barrel.

What a great image from Newberry Springs. Unfortunately there is a fence around the service station now and you have to climb on your car's roof to get a decent perspective ;-)

Thanks Odd. My hope is that if people love the images they will take an interest in preservation of historic sites,even gas stations and cafes.
