Another of the shots I took of Los Angeles from Kenneth Hahn Recreation Area on 01-13-18. 200mm telephoto. 3 exposure HDR.
A panorama of the L.A. skyline photographed on Mar. 25 of 2018 and never uploaded to Flickr at the time. I reprocessed the image this morning too, since some of the reds were overcooked from previous processing.
This is HDR, obviously, but not three exposure. It's a single image, taken with the EOS80D mounted on a small tripod on the dashboard of my car.
I have spent many, many hours of my life listening to vinyl records. It's hard to explain the feeling I get when that needle plunks down on a cherished record, sending that pop through the speakers of my rather antiquated home system. It's a sound that means something good is coming -- either a catharsis I need or a beautiful melody, or just something joyous and celebratory.
I don't know why, but somehow the feeling of holding a record seems more profound than opening a jewel case, or clicking on a file in iTunes.
The record you see above is an original pressing of X's Los Angeles. It's one of those that I've played a thousand times, and still can't get enough of.
