President Obama Motors Through LA.

President Obama's motorcade rolled through my neighborhood this morning.
I grabbed my camera and jumped on my bicycle, then made it through the Obamajam down to LA High School where four Marine choppers were waiting on the field for the president.
A small crowd of local residents waved to the president as he drove by.
The president flew off in Marine One to Glendale.

I10 T-Rex

It's nice sitting in the passenger seat sometimes. After a long week in Indian Land with my friend Dave Wyman, we came back to LA via highway I10. Had an old 5D sitting on my lap with a 70-200mm lens, was snipping off shots through the windshield throughout the ride.
This is one of the last shots on my CF card before day turned to eve.
Saw what appeared to be a T-Rex walking through a silhouette maze of palm trees and power wires, and quickly shot this image. The orange sunset sky made the image.

Indian Land 2013

Spent a week in the southwestern U.S. photographing on Indian land.
Was amazing reconnecting with the natural forces.
