Cooley, who says he is “always location scouting,” came across this cave on Matador Beach in Southern California. He juxtaposes natural and manmade light to question presumptions of our control of nature. (2011)

Some of the photos do convey a sense of loneliness but my initial feeling is of a sense of hope for others. The existence of a point of artificial light in a vast landscape makes me feel less alone. Amazing photos either way.
