Description
This is the very first image I made during my trip to California, in March of 2016. As we were flying over Banning Pass right after Palm Springs, (the entrance to the LA basin), I noticed a thick layer of marine fog over the coastal areas, well into Downtown LA, which is roughly 15 miles from the sea. For a moment my heart sank, thinking about how little time I was going to spend in LA, but I reminded myself it is not my Will, but His. I was going to make the best out of any situation. The next day I woke up at 5:00 AM and the fog was still around. All of a sudden I thought that if it was an inversion kind of fog, I would be able to drive above it, specially if I was going to photograph the Griffith Observatory, in the Hollywood Hills. Starting my drive in the pre-dawn hours, I headed up the hills, parked my car, and hiked until I would have a clear view of the observatory with downtown LA next to it. Thanks for looking!
