Note: These are digital photographs I snapped using a Sony Mavica digital still camera (MVC-FD-88) with built-in digital zoom (telephoto).  Feel free to use them as you will.  If you use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me.  Note: These are thumbnail previews.  To see a full-size high-resolution version of a particular photograph click on the "thumbnail" image.  You will see the full image in a separate window.

THE MOOSE IS LOOSE!

 

Suggested by Bob Patterson – just down the street, Rocky and Bullwinkle keep guard on the Sunset Strip.  This is not Michelangelo’s David.  This is Hollywood after all.  

 

And the moose is next to a place that is far, far too yellow.

Morning shots – 

  • Morning Glories on a fence below Sunset, with what seems to be the world’s largest Eriogonum umbrellum (Schefflera or Umbrella Plant) in the background.  Schefflera is usually a houseplant, no?
  • These are real.  They shouldn’t be.  Hydrangea arborescens. 
  • From the web log – from my window, my neighbor’s soldiers all in a row on Saturday morning

From last week's home page...

The Hollywood of Raymond Chandler - an old Art Deco office building, no doubt full of wise-cracking cynical detectives in fedoras, right on Hollywood Boulevard at Highland. 

 

And if you click on the image for the large version, you can check out the stern but patriotic metal eagles on the roof, and other odd detail, like the metal fire escape (good shadows) from this top octagonal office. 

 

One of my favorite buildings in Hollywood….
