LA Lights

On a recent trip to LA I visited Griffith Observatory on what was one of the clearest nights I've ever seen in the city. They were throwing a viewing party with multiple telescopes which gave us a chance to look at the belts of Jupiter, the star factory known as the Orion Nebula, and a far away star cluster of hundreds of stars too distant to be seen by the naked eye. I've always loved going to Griffith since I was a little kid, and this most recent visit reminded me why it's such a special place, especially at night.

Been in the studio working with a new camera that I will post about soon. It will hopefully be the set up that I use for the Empty City (working title) series I'm working on and takes a lot of getting familiar with it for me to be sure that I'm getting the most of out it. It looks like it's going to be a great system and can't wait to get some images out of it.

In the meantime, here's a photo I took during my short trip back home early this month. I took a mini break from photography while I was out there, but couldn't help but get a few photos anyway.
