I caught a plane to LA to work with some professionals with my band, and while I was there, I decided to take some R&R and shoot some of the city. This is the result:

During some time spent at Santa Monica, I captured this image of downtown while on a dope Ferris wheel over the water.

On our way to hollywood, I shot this through a windshield. I liked the framing of the palm trees around the frame, and the color temperature was nice even though it felt like an oven.

I liked this shot for the atmosphere. Sun flare is one of those things that I love in certain situations, and I felt like it really added here without throwing off the composition of the image.

This was inside our hotel lobby, and I really liked the subtle lollipop color pop in addition to the contrast in this shot between the dark cast colors on the wall, and the lighter and softer colors outside the window.

Pretty straight forward, I followed Mitch until he was in a good spot for me to shoot this picture with the LEDs bleeding on to his hoodie. The colors were appealing.

Another one of the homies.

Here's a cooler temperature shot I took over the beach. I liked how dense it was while still being organized, and I felt like the bar, in this case, didn't distract too much from the shot.
LA is a super cool place, and although I had other things going on, I was glad I got to take some time off to do some shooting. Definitely get out that way if you can, and I'll leave you with a few last shots from my trip.
