CJ the Legographer and I are in Kenneth Hahn Park. At the Lookout Point, we were greeted by a most spectacular sight: The stunning San Gabriel Mountains towering over Downtown LA and her LA neighborhoods!
There were dozens of other photographers here trying to capture this very rare sight. Usually, you cannot see the mountains due to smog and haze. Been waiting weeks for a heavy rain or high wind and it finally happened the night before.
We are taken aback with how much beauty is all around us that we've never noticed before. Definitely one of my favorite images of CJ's LA Tour. 🏔🏙😄
I'm full of gratitude for your kind expressions. The photo truly doesn't give the actual view justice, but I'm happy I could share it all with you. Thank you!
@365karly1 - So nice to hear from you again Karly. We're happy to see you out shooting too. Your landscape photos never cease to amaze us!
@cruiser - Thank you, So nice to see you back Chris! Welcome back. We've missed your photos.
@farmreporter - Thank you so much Wendy. I've almost finished an entire year of all CJ photos with little more than a month to go. Normally in a shot like this I just walk up and shoot but with CJ, I have to think about his colors, where I can place him, kneel low, what the depth of field will be like, and more. So nice of you to notice the extra effort it takes. :)
@4rky -Thank you so much! Exactly, never knew the mountains behind DTLA were taller than the skyscrapers.
@stray_shooter - Thanks very much Ron!! Totally agree, it's really enjoyable when we get super clear days in LA. CJ can mark this shot off his bucket list. Haha
