This is an older shot I just found. I'm standing in the alley behind The Galaxy Tower, closeby where I live here in Long Beach. I remember shooting this around golden hour, and I'm on the backside of the building, but the light was just right to capture the mood, catch a wee bit of shadow, and get a reflection. I've been doing quite a lot lately with deep, very saturated blue skies, and a load of contrast, but I really dig this one.

DTLB Alley Once Again
Yesterday I found myself in this alley. Again. With my camera. Again.
Shots on the floor
Literally. Shots of shots. Of espresso. On the floor.
2+1 Lookup
So, here's an image I captured during one of my recent morning explorations of downtown Long Beach. I am digging the way the stoplight pole is grouped with the two palm trees set against the whispy clouds in the blue sky.
Right Lane Must Turn Right
Prints available direct -- special
I have listed some prints at a "sale" price that is good through this month, March 2018.
If you're in the L.A. area, I can be dealt with in person, rather than through the site, if you wish.
Please check'em out:
This is a 16x24" image printed on 3/4" thick birch wood. Ready to hang.
Rare Clouds in LB
I went out around midday yesterday, and I took my camera with me--just in case. And there was nothing interesting. But just before I hopped into my little Kia to head back home, I stood in the middle of the street to capture this scene. I like the vanishing point perspective, and we've been experiencing some "winter" weather here in SoCal, so there have been some interesting cloud formations around the past few days. This turned out to be one of those times. I am really digging how this piece turned out. Hope you do, too.

Turtle Reflection
This is hidden behind one of the newer buildings in DTLB. The fountain wasn't working the other day when I encountered this, but it was pretty windy, so I had to expose long enough to get the smooth water. The stone turtle sculptures and the way the buildings were reflecting off the water made me stop.
Another day, another shot
Of espressso, that is. I caught the exact perfect moment of the morning sunlight beaming through the window to make this shadow.
