It was a glorious day in LA today [70 degrees and all] & I took more than 300 images all around downtown.
Here’s part 1 of the exploration [shot with 100% natural light]…
Our first stop was MOCA/Museum of Contemporary Art
& this installation, designed by the celebrated Japanese architect Arata Isozaki, took my breath away.
It’s space odyssey & the big bang combined!
Alexander Calder’s ‘Four Arches’ stood majestically at the entrance of the Bank of America Center.
Lesson of the day: the city has an amazing natural light :)
& the journey continues…

OMG , absolutely breathtaking. So difficult to decide …
Number three and one are the ones that are catching my eye the most. Wow, really, the change of scenery is bringing you even more inspiration :)

Great shots! The 2nd one is my fav. Looks like an up-side down city in another dimension. =)

They are all made wonderful through your eyes! I think I like the last one best with the composition of lines and curves and color and perspective. Beautiful work, and you’ve only scratched the surface! The people are fascinating as well, and I look forward to your people insights.

WOW Agnes, what an impressive perspective/composition of the city! Very fresh and unique. The clarity and colours are brilliant as well. You have stepped up your game. Keep doing it! My eyes are peeled. :-D
P.S.: My favourites are the first and last.

Amazing shots! I love the first and last especially. So much life in all the space junk…amazing chaos. And I love, love the perspective of the last. Your logo blends perfectly into the first two!

Absolutely love the “upside down” composition of the first two ones!
Very interesting architecture!
It looks like LA has some pretty interesting buildings, keep on exploring for us ;-)
