L.A.
Thanks to a cancelled flight I had an overnight layover in L.A. Unfortunately, I was so exhausted that I wasted most of it sleeping. The first 25 shots were all taken at Venice Beach during the span of about an hour and a half in mid-day sun, which is pretty much the worst time to take pictures, except for when there's no light at all. They are all unedited.
While shooting, I was making an attempt to look for ways to link different photos together. Ideally I would display many of these photos as separate sets of two or three shots together--some sets have the same or similar setting but with one or more different elements, and some have a similar pattern or theme occurring in different settings. I also was trying to get some kind of flow between the shots as a whole, so that when viewed as a slideshow this gallery would have a more cohesive feel, but I have a feeling that my goals didn't really come across as well as I'd hoped. I want to try again soon.
Everything after the first 25 shots was taken in 2012, during a stay in L.A. that totaled about two weeks, and they are all unedited.
