I went to the lily farm today. The early lilies were mostly ruined by all the rain we've had, but I found some dandelions. The combination was perfection!
Remove the houses, oil derricks and pipes and you go back 300 years. You can easily envision the people hunting and foraging the banks and mesas of this estuary. If you would like to visit, this place is at the Harriet Weider Regional Park in Huntington Beach, California. Bring your mountain bike. Parking is free, even by the side of the road. laist.com/news/oc-returns-land-to-indigenous-communities?...
The area around the Bonaventure Hotel is fantastic. The pedestrian overpasses and elevated courtyards provide all sorts of vantage points for photographing the downtown.
I love these trees with the amazing pink leaves. I took dozens of shots of the leaves.

I've been checking out these apps that attempt to predict the quality of sunrises and sunsets. One is online at SunsetWX the other is Skyfire, an addon to the Photographer's Ephemeris app.
During the last week both apps were saying Friday had a good but not great chance for a high quality sunrise in Los Angeles. So I put my faith in the fancy new technology, got up early and made my way to Griffith Park. I say the predictions got is right this time.
I didn't have much time to play in the closeup details of the aspen, but I did get lost in there a couple times...
This is much sweeter if you hit the "L" key.

I stopped in at the zoo yesterday. This time I had the most fun watching these ducks playing & diving. I didn't get a perfect shot, but this was my favorite one. It was quite challenging, as there were so many things to watch out for: the kids in front of you, the ducks splashing on the glass, people around you's reflections on the glass, the light out there, the light in where I was, some ugly stuff in the background, and of course the constantly moving ducks!

So I'm a bit late to this whole Instagram thing. All this new internet stuff is scary and confusing. Yeah, it's embarrassing. Anyway you can follow me at @clarsonx.
I found this spot on Instagram from the feeds of a couple of great LA photographers @thekevingreen and @philsutphin. Had to check it out myself.
This is up in the Glendale hills overlooking downtown Glendale with downtown LA in the background haze.
After shooting the Bonaventure I made the short walk to the 4th street overpass to grab this shot. The light trails are a bit jagged as the traffic on the 110 was particularly heavy and slow moving.
I got lucky taking this shot with my tripod, because later came a Sheriff deputy asking me to stop taking pictures with the tripod. Tripods are not allowed within this premise, only hand held photography.
In Los Angeles for Christmas at my sister's, I managed to get out one night for photos. I headed downtown to the 4th street bridge for this classic LA scene. This shot is so popular there are holes worn into the sidewalk from the positioning of tripod legs. Sunday night before Christmas and there are two other photographers besides me hanging out on this overpass. That's a bit nuts.
