Quiet Hollywood

 The world as seen from Just Above Sunset -

"Notes on how things seem from out here in Hollywood..."

Well, It's Home

After a night of storms and heavy rain, and a day of clouds slowly blowing out and then some sun, we get the Sunday night quiet twilight in Hollywood.  No one is around. The important people are at the Grammys across town, and others are perhaps watching on television. It's dead silent. Down the block on the Sunset Strip they're shutting things down - the limos will arrive for the "after" parties soon at the famous clubs. Here it is just quiet.

From the roof here, sunset - 5:40 on Friday, February 16, 2007 - clear, just cooling off from a high of eighty-five - looking out west -

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.
