Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills Night shot. I'm almost done with my vacation in L.A and ready to leave. Unfortunately because this place had lot of visitors, my underexposed shots had lot of ppl standing in front of the overexposed region close to the road so I could not bring those details back.

So much detail

The pier was a fun place. If you are a people watcher, this is for you. I had more fun taking candid shots here than anything else. Look for those to come soon with a few stories.

 

Until then, what better way to herald the start of the three day weekend than with a shot that is filled with so many good memories of family and friends and the outdoors.

 

I added a few of my own textures to this one to help overcome the blazing sun that day. If you are in to using textures or have always wanted to try, have a look here and feel free to download a few and give this type of scene a whirl.

I'm not into "teaser shots" that much. So heres the start of my California shots!

I'm not much of a street photographer; this is only my second attempt in as many years. This is a portrait of a homeless man. He was in a wheelchair and begging oustide of Gucci on Rodeo Drive. He was mild-mannered and congenial. He did not even ask me to pay him for letting me take the shots.

On Rodeo (roh-DAY-oh) Drive--one of the most expensive streets in the world--the Beverly Hills fashion district famous for designer label and haute couture fashion, shops and boutiques.

*********************************************************************

Rodeo Drive is a two mile long street, primarily in Beverly Hills, California. Its northern terminus is its intersection with Sunset Boulevard and its southern is its intersection with Beverwil Drive in the city of Los Angeles. The name is most commonly used metonymically to refer to a three block stretch of the street north of Wilshire Boulevard and south of Little Santa Monica Boulevard, which is known for its luxury-goods stores. The larger business district surrounding Rodeo, known as the "Golden Triangle," which extends from Wilshire Boulevard to Santa Monica Boulevard, is both a shopping district and a major tourist attraction.

 

In 1906, Burton E. Green (1868-1965) and other investors purchased the property that would become Beverly Hills, formerly named Rancho Rodeo de las Aguas, with plans for a mixed-use subdivision with a branch of the Los Angeles and Pacific Railway running North on Rodeo Drive before turning west at Sunset Boulevard. By 1907, 75x160 foot parcels on Rodeo were selling for $1100 each. By November 1925, similar lots were selling for between $15,000 and $30,000, almost double what they'd been selling for in September.

 

The central part of Rodeo eventually became a business street with hardware stores, gas stations, beauty shops, and bookstores. In 1958, real estate developer Marvin Kratter bought 48,000 square feet of land at the corner of Rodeo and Wilshire Boulevard from the city of Beverly Hills. The acreage is across the street from the Beverly Wilshire Hotel and Kratter paid something over $2 million for it.

 

In 1967 Fred Hayman, "the father of Rodeo Drive," opened Giorgio Beverly Hills, the street's first high-end boutique. In 1968 Aldo Gucci opened a store on Rodeo, which catalyzed the process by which the street took on its present form. Van Cleef & Arpels opened in 1969, followed by a Vidal Sassoon salon in 1970.

 

According to erstwhile co-chair of the "Rodeo Drive Committee" Richard Carroll, the transformation of Rodeo Drive into an international center of fashionable shopping was sparked in 1971 with the opening of a new wing of the Beverly Wilshire. In 1980 Carroll noted that before then "There was nothing at all of an international nature on the street. Rodeo was purely local in flavor." In 1977 the Rodeo Drive Committee "launched a publicity campaign designed to make everyone around the world think of Rodeo Drive as the shopping street of the rich and famous." The RDC wanted to make Rodeo Drive an economic engine for Beverly Hills and spread the image of a "culturally elite lifestyle."

 

In 1976, Bijan Pakzad opened a showroom on Rodeo, which helped to solidify "Rodeo Drive's reputation as a luxury shopping destination." Pakzad touted his Rodeo Drive location as "the most expensive in the world," but, as Women's Wear Daily notes in relation to the claim, "he was known for hyperbole." By 1978 the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce was boasting that Rodeo Drive was "the essence of the best of all the shopping centers of the world" and by 1980 the city of Beverly Hills estimated that the Rodeo Drive shopping district accounted for as much as 25% of its sales tax revenues. The building at 332 N. Rodeo was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

Well this certainly looks familiar. Except with two less expensive cars. Which would you drive?

It is no secret around my house that I am not a morning person. I never have been. I prefer to have my body tell me when to wake up than some obnoxious noise maker. However there are many exceptions to that rule. Some I hate - work! and some I enjoy - family activities, travel. So it was understood that while on vacation in LA I needed at least one sunrise shot. I chose my first morning because it was going to be the easiest since nothing really happened the night before besides settling into the house and planning our week. I mean let's face it - being a tourist is hard work. Go here see this. Rush there to see that. Eat quickly here since we have a six o'clock at such and such. Then it's bed at midnight to rise early the next day to start over again.

 

So I knew the first morning was my window and besides my body was still on Texas time so rising early in LA was going to be a given. I'm happy to report that it was well worth it. I was a little later than I should have been and only got the tail end of sunrise on camera. But the peaceful solitude of watching the lights go out in the city below as the cars started their way to work and the golden light reflecting off the buildings was well worth the extra hour of sleep I was missing.

 

Sadly I never made another sunrise while there but at least I brought back proof that I was willing to be adventurous one day while away.

 

Please allow The Church Choir to provide a little back-up music as you view the scene large.
