Like most Angelenos, the Fig tree is a transplant. These beautiful trees can be found throughout Los Angeles, with some like this one adorned in the string lights that illuminate LA’s varied neighborhoods. In the background of this photo is the Walt Disney Concert Hall.
Originally from the east coast, I've called LA home for the last 10 years. I am an engineer by training and an avid photographer in my free time. I first learned how to work a camera on my dad’s Exakta Varex IIa back in the 1980’s, shooting black and white negatives and developing them in my high school dark room. For me part of the joy of taking pictures has always been in setting up the lighting and having an intuitive sense of the physical principles of imaging that lead to a compelling photograph. My work consists of Street Photography in and around Los Angeles, California, USA
