Friday, July 11, 2008 – Hollywood Variations

You have to keep an eye on Hollywood.  Things change all the time, but it's all variations on a theme.

Artists at Work: Hollywood Boulevard is getting a second Hookah Lounge and these folks have hired a team of taggers – a Tag Team, if you will – to create the façade, or really, what you will see when the place is closed and the steel doors rolled down. They were nice fellows, willing to discuss their work, and suggested it would look really good in two are three more days, when all the colors were laid on – so do come back. It looks pretty good now.

The lenses used are (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto, or (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED.
