tephen Willard (1894-1966) was a true artist who did not shun other methods or mediums to describe the wonders and unusual moods of the natural world. His art is not a concession between the world of commercial and fine art photography, rather a lifelong pursuit to capture what he felt when he stood before the majesty of the landscape, and to share that feeling with others through the use of two simple tools - a camera and a paintbrush. Willard's work in black and white photographs, which he printed in Gelatin-Silver of California's deserts and mountains, were recognized as some of the finest done by any Western photographer in the period. Through his experimental work in textured screen pro...

The Salton Sea was an accident of man created when heavy rainfall caused the Rio Colorado to swell and breach an Imperial Valley dike in 1905. For two years, water flowed into the Salton Sink and ancient Lake Cahuilla. Today, the sea is 227 feet below sea level, covers approximately 376 square miles, and is California's largest lake. During the early 1900s, it became an important bird and waterfowl refuge. When many species of fish were introduced, the Salton Sea also became popular for boating, fishing, hunting, and camping activities. Motels, yacht clubs, and marinas developed around Salton City and North Shore. During recent decades, the sea has become polluted from agricultural runoff, creating a doubtful future for the Salton Sea. However, it remains a sanctuary for anyone who enjoys bird watching, desert landscapes, or beautiful farmlands.
