I'm No Angel
2008.05.17
You never know who'll you will meet.
|
The Hollywood and Highland station. It reminded me of Space Mountain at Disneyland.
|
I loved the curves and the light.
|
The Hollywood and Vine station. If you enlarge it, you can see that the circles in the ceiling are all film reels.
|
There are all kinds of characters there. :) I almost got in line for Jimmy Kimmel because he was going to have Matthew Fox on. Did you know he's a photographer too? Check this out.

Part of the facade of the El Capitan.
|
R2D2's footprints at Grauman's Chinese Theater. :)

On Friday, I took the day off and went into Hollywood. I took the train into LA and then the subway into Hollywood. It was my first time riding the subway, which was fun.
I went to see Behind the Emerald Curtain (which was a little disappointing since we didn't get to see as many costumes as I'd hoped. AND NO SHOES!). I decided to go early and do a little wandering around Hollywood. In 40 years of living near LA, I'd never been to see Grauman's Chinese Theater or the El Capitan or wandered at all really. Kind of a "it's there and I'll get around to it someday but there's always something else to do" thing. But now I can check those things off the list. :)
Surprisingly, I didn't have much photo mojo that day so I didn't take a whole lot of photos. Weird, I know.
I'm No Angel - Dido
I've always liked this song. ;)
"I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try
I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life
I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry
I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly."

That subway looks very spaceage! I love it! #1 is great - it looks like it was a hot day too. It's good to get out and see new places...

Great captures of feel and magic of Hollywood. Love the curves and light of #3 and the tones and composition of #8. #4 and #7 are other faves.

I love the subway shots! I didn't know there was a subway in LA! I'm wondering if the El Capitan facade is Gladding McBean terra cotta. Excellent selection of Hollywood shots! Amazing what you can see being a tourist in your own town.
