Photographer Ed Freeman went to the deserts of Southern California to take pictures of landscapes. Then, to his surprise, he fell in love with the buildings. His Desert Realty series showcases dilapidated shacks, diners, and "darn-right interesting" houses, each culled from its context to showcase its personality. Whether it's about rainbow trailers or barbershops, Freeman has a lot to say about the beauty of the forgotten. Curbed National has the photos and the interview. [Curbed National]
