Nighttime Union Station

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light, moments of monstrous beauty, endless dark, glimmering light. Taken: June 2, 2015

Quiet Chinatown night

The string of glowing colors light the way for silence and souls drifting through

Half Moon Bay

Every time I stand before a beautiful beach, it always seems to whisper to me: if you choose the simple things in life and find joy in nature's treasures, life and living need not be so hard. ~ Psyche Roxas Mendoza

Long Beach sunset

The story of each day is different, just as different as the sun's mood when it ends it's journey through the sky. Taken: Apr. 12, 2014

Perch street view

As someone who isn't very tall, I always wonder what the view is like for other (taller) people. I think that's why I like to look up. Too many times I have the bad habit of looking down or looking at nothing. Hard to ignore the nighttime view of downtown LA along Hill Street.

El Segundo sunset

I was trying to catch the sun before it went down. I headed west to the ocean. The street overlooking the water had other sunset watchers, snapping their own shots of Mother's Nature show. Taken: Mar., 2 2014

Sunset over Manhattan Beach pier

I was watching the photographer on the sand and saw he was pointing his camera at this direction. He actually moved to the spot closer to the pier when I shot him. I couldn't help but wonder what he was looking at when he saw this sunset. Taken: Jan. 7, 2014

Junipero Beach

Broadway Avenue, downtown LA

Transient, disparate LA sometimes you lighten up my day...behind the Hello LA billboard is a sign that says "Jesus Saves." Taken: Jan. 28, 2014

Long Beach, Bluff Park

A fiery blaze in the horizon, sunset left a trail of colorful kisses. Taken: Jan. 12, 2014

Manhattan Beach Pier

I decided to use my Canon DSLR for this shot, something I haven't used in since the summer. That day I was slowly getting over a cold so my hearing was muffled. I couldn't hear the waves as they came to shore, but the colors from this sunset felt so much more vibrant and alive. Makes me wonder if one sense is not fully working do the other senses heighten in order to make up for it? Taken: Jan. 8, 2014

Naples Canal

We live by the sun; we love by the moon. A nighttime stroll along the Napes canals in Long Beach turned into a crescent moon sighting. Taken: Jan. 4, 2014

Utopia's lights

Color me curious and delighted by the golden dreams of utopia blending with the nightly glow grit and beauty walk side by side whispering of life's colored disappointments milliseconds of joy the audience cued to a rhythmic pattern ready to relive and complete

Twilight sky

My sky at twilight fills with emotions, forms, colors searching, feeding the fire of my soul the bitterest moments linger mixing with the sweetest solitary dreams wind and cloud carry silent regard for a heart as wide as the ocean.
