One of the peculiarities of Crenshaw's digital scoreboard is that the pixels are "strobed" rather than continuously active. Everything is flashed sequentially at a rate high enough to utilize the human eye's "persistence of vision", in a manner similar to motion pictures -- which are just a sequence of still photographs.

If the scoreboard is photographed at my typical exposure time of 1/800 second -- used to "freeze" basketball motion -- then only part of the scoreboard will be visible. The exposure time has to be increased to about 1/60 second in order for guarantee that all the pixels will be seen as illuminated. This requires holding the camera very steady to avoid motion blur and I'm not always successful in doing so.

Nicest dog on Wilshire. Even let me pet it.

Hollywood Park and The Forum that-a-way.

This shot shows some of the newly-poured concrete building footings for the new Crenshaw auditorium, music building, and cafeteria.

Was a Shell Gas Station. Luckily, UHAUL has exactly the same amount of letters.

Smart Pawn and Bar-Que. (I have officially crossed south of the Santa Monica Freeway. I will pass scores of Pawn Shops and BBQ Restaurants before reaching the sea.)

Was a Vons? Ralphs? Albertsons? Food King? Foster's? Lucky?
