Burchfield’s recent photographs emanate from his long-term involvement in the The Legacy Project, the non-profit, collaborative effort documenting the closing of Orange County’s 4700-acre El Toro Marine Base and its evolution into the long-anticipated Great Park of Orange County. Abandoned structures, isolated cypresses, lonely railroad tracks and barbed-wire fences hidden in eerie yet eloquent, fog-filled landscapes are metaphorical and engaging.
