Travel - City of Angels
Before the Camera Artist Summit mentioned in the last blog, I took a quick trip to Los Angeles to visit my brother and his wife and son. They were out there for a few months and I needed a reason to get away for a while.
While there, I spent most of the time just chilling with them. We did drive around Hollywood and walked Venice Beach. During that walk, I decided to do an impromptu photoshoot. Even though I left most of my equipment back at the hotel. To visit my brother, I was also trying to plan a shoot with some of the local models in the LA area. That was a failure, but I'm not going to give up on my goal. Back to the business at hand, With the equipment I had was one body (D7100) and one lens (18-70) and the sun as my only source of light.
“There are things which nobody would see unless I photographed them.”
“I see little of more importance to the future of our country and of civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist. If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.”
