I live in Los Angeles

Yes, I am alive.  Here are some photos of Los Angeles.

Who says L.A. is sprawling?

So I took some photos inside the Bradbury Building.

Just realized I forgot to watermark these.  Plz don’t infringe.  Thx.

Huntington

Here are some shots I took at Huntington Beach earlier today.

Don’t know the surfers—just poached the shots.

Skateboarding

So I used to skateboard. A lot.

Here are a couple shots of me from back in 1998, when I was in high school.

Here’s a clip of me from early 2001.

I don’t skate much anymore. But now that I’m back on the West Coast, I’ve gone out a few times. Here are a couple shots I took of my friend Grant.

It’s funny—I’ve seen thousands of skateboarding photos but have never really taken my own. I’m not super stoked about these shots, but they’re OK for a first try. (In my opinion, the last shot below is the most amateurish of the bunch.)

 

 

Corona Del Mar

Some shots I took at Corona Del Mar in late summer.

Now Broadcasting From California

After an extended hiatus for driving cross country/apartment hunting/shirking responsibility, the photo blog is back—now from California.

In that spirit, here are some late summer California skies. Some of these photos are unedited. Oh, and credit for the last couple shots goes to my wife.

Hearst Castle

Some shots from Hearst Castle, California.

Sunset at Pismo Beach

These shots are a little noisy (at the time, I still didn’t really get the whole ISO thing), but I still kinda like them.

Peaches

When I shot this photo, this tree in my parents’ backyard was covered in dozens, if not hundreds, of peaches. I like the natural framing in this shot.

“Millions of peaches, peaches for me, . . .”

The bunch on the left was slightly riper than the bunch on the right.
