Photographer Troy Paiva has documented what he calls "Lost America": night photography of the American West. here's what he wrote about the photo above:

One of the abandoned houses on the hill above Hunters Point Naval Shipyard, San Francisco, CA. About 20 houses sat untouched and forgotten for 30 years in one of the most valuable real estate markets in the world. The entire neighborhood was torn down as part of the redevelopment of the base in 2006, even the trees and streets were removed. Night, 100VS chrome film, 4 minutes, f5.6, full moon, green and red-gelled strobe-flash.

A Flickr gallery of Hunters Point can be viewed here.
