Tuesday on the Strip (Color Studies)

Mid-afternoon, February 6, on the Sunset Strip, there are the women of color, like this one, Sunset at San Vicente, on the balcony behind the card/gift/costume shop on the other side of the street from the Whiskey A Go Go. It's a sixties thing, or a sixties nightmare.

If you use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me.

These were shot with a Nikon D70 - using lens (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300mm telephoto, or after 5 June 2006, (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor, 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED. They were modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0

The original large-format raw files are available upon request.
