Tuesday, April 12, 2011 – Haunted Scenes

Courtyard of the Egyptian Theater, Hollywood Boulevard

An odd day at the Egyptian Theater on Hollywood Boulevard – an odd place – but 1922 was an odd time. There had been that public fascination with the multiple expeditions searching for the tomb of Tutankhamen, by that bold and manly adventurer-archaeologist Howard Carter, in those years. Maybe you had to be there back in those years. A lot of Mummy movies followed. And now you can step off the Boulevard and be in one again.

Just around the corner on Cherokee, still the twenties – it's always the twenties –

Technical Note:

These photographs were taken with a Nikon D200 – the lenses used were AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto. The high-resolution photography here was modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software.
