This is the only photo I took in L.A. during my last stay there back in August. As far as I remember this was West Hollywood Boulevard. We were there only for some hours. Most of the time we spent in the car cruising through the busy streets of L.A. and all the rest I„Photo of the day #119“ weiterlesen

Another analogue panoramic shot. Construction site silos in an industrial park in Garching in the north of Munich. I was so fascinated by the clear colour scheme of blue and white which was just slightly distorted by some traces of rust. (FUJI G617, FUJIFILM Velvia 100)
