I helped Wayne move today. Since he's a rockin' photographer, I asked him if he has shot his driveway or these flowers. He said no, so I did.

This is across the street from this shot taken exactly one year ago. The gas station is to the left, the older photo is to the right. I remembered it was about a year ago, but got a bit lucky that I guessed perfectly.

We ate at Shogun and had some really good sushi. This photo is of the lanterns, though (not the sushi).

Downtown in the distance on the left, super busy 110 freeway on the right. This is one shot, but looks like a diptych. It seemed fitting for L.A.
