One tends to think of places like the ones I suggested when one has lived in one place for four decades.

And out to Jan in New Mexico, I was born in Abq. and I go home at least once a year. This coming January I am planning a road trip home and maybe shoot in the red rocks near Gallup.

Too bad I wasnt around, I live and work in Ventura, but make it back down to LA every weekend almost. Some good locations mentioned...there are a few more interesting places downtown LA in addition to the Concert Hall and Angels Flight:

Ever shot the gorgeous bridge over Colorado blvd near 134? Last year some idiots built apts UNDER the bridge practically. Who would live there-trolls?
I think it was made in the 30s, great old lamps along its length. And Samys camera nearby..

In So Cal as well. Apple Valley - next to Victorville.

The great thing about California is - you're only a few hours from beaches, Deserts, Sierra Mountains, Scuba, Great Cities ......

Hello to all! New member here. I'm near Riverside/Corona (Lake Mathews). I have a few days during the week off, usually. Give me a shout if you guys come up with a "get together" of any kind.
