PHOTOGRAPHYYOU-ARE-HERE.COMis a pictoral presentation of the wealth of architecture and buildings which contribute to the greatness of Los Angeles. Through the perceptive eye of a less skilled photographer and his hard-to-find writings, it portrays what is an extraordinary city not only of Southern California, but the world as well. A place on the move, of the future, yet an area with a unique and rich heritage all it's own.
ONE CITY • 1 PHOTOGRAPHER • 3000+ BUILDINGS • New Photos • Greater Los Angeles, a scattering of communities that has evolved into a big urban complex, unified by ties of social, cultural and economic interest and laced together by a unique mode of transportation that enables people to pursue far-flung interests with little concern for time or distance, a metropolis built on wheels, dependent on the automobile and benefiting from it's mobility. A city of ceaseless change and innovation, impatient of precedent, inhabited by people who do things on a grand scale, solving problems with flair and imagination, creating a landscape of surprises and contrasts, tending the sophisticated needs of far-out techno-logy. One of the largest harbors in the west, major aircraft and aerospace manufacturers and the early oil industry shaped the visions of many. |
