Man Flying a Kite at Angels Gate Park in San Pedro, Ca, under s blue sky with the Korean Frienship Bell in the background
Last year I spent the day driving around Los Angeles with a couple of photography friends.  As we arrived at the Korean Friendship Bell I shot this picture while my buddy shot his composition standing next to me! 

I honestly didn't care for this picture when it was shot and we were going to reshoot during a sunset at a later date...then my friend died and I have found a different level of appreciation for this picture!
I will always remember his generosity, crazy sense of humor, and his love for his two children!

RIP Thomas Allen Gartner III
Pt Fermin Lighthouse was built in 1874 and since 1972 has been on the National Register of Historic Places.
This is the remnants of a 1920’s cliff collapse in the southern part of LA which took with it multiple houses and part of a road. You’ll have to jump a barrier, crawl under the fence on the side of a cliff, and possibly pay a $400 fine (if you’re caught). It’s worth the risk to see this amazing, unique, and slightly apocalyptic feeling place that not many people know about.

The hotel was nice enough, but it is hard to believe that breakfast was not included. Rather than stand in line to pay for breakfast, we elected to leave early and seek food elsewhere. The only reason we could do that is that we had a car. Most fly in so they were stuck. Very poor form on your ...

The shuttle gets full quick. The driver blew past two stops people waving at him. Stopped at one to explain he was full. Wifi is "free" only if you provide name, address, email, phone number for marketing.🤔 Floors are confusing. Example: 2110 is second floor, not 21st, & they don't state floor number ...
