Tuesday, August 14, 2007 – Facing the Heat

Images from the Sunset Strip on a hot afternoon, near one hundred in the shade – and everything seems a California hallucination –

The Cointreau billboard is still disturbing, although it claims that stuff will improve your margarita. One might worry about the side effects.

Above the Whiskey a Go Go –

Heat…

Other Sunset Strip faces, in a gift shop window…

If you wish to use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me. And should you choose to download any of these images and use them invoking the "fair use" provisions of the Copyright Act of 1976, please provide credit, and, on the web, a link back this site.

Technical Note:

Most of these photographs 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.  Earlier photography was done with a Sony Mavica digital still camera (MVC-FD-88) with built-in digital zoom.
