Back in the 60′s if someone yelled ‘Surf’s Up!’ the whole area would empty out. The beach was only 15 minute walk away.

This was also before the marina was put in. That wiped out any good surfing forever.

That’s Los Angeles City Hall in the background. Los Angeles Police Headquarter in behind me. To the left, out of the picture, is the Los Angeles Times newspaper building.

These news vans, this one is KNBC, can be seen all over central Los Angeles.

City, County, State, and Federal buildings are all with walking distance.

And walk it I do.

For you techie types below is the same photo after I used Lightroom 4.1 distortion correction for the vertical.

The photo was shot at 18mm focal length with a DX format camera.
Top photo the full image.
Bottom photo cropped after distortion correction.

4th Street Bridge? I Sure Hope So

Is it the 4th Street Bridge over the LA River? I think it is but because I get lazy keeping track of what I shoot, the location, and name of the bridge is in question. It shouldn’t be. Lightroom has plenty of options for keeping track of your images. The only reason we don’t is for one reason only: LAZY.
