Week 8: Los Angeles Night Life

Its striking to see how the night life of a busy metropolitan city can become the setting for a breath taking light show. This was taken atop The Getty overlooking Los Angeles. The city instantly transformed to a relaxing landscape at this distance with the help, from none other, of light. The lighting from the surrounding buildings, housing, and vehicles helped illuminate the city and became a performance entirely on its own with the sustained glow. I couldn't keep my eyes off the view that evening. The lights kept drawing me in leaving me fully entertained as they traveled and flashed in the distance. The night skies should be thanked for the aid to the light show as well as the high altitude for the opportunity to witness a setting that is often not praised at street level. A view like this is always a reminder to how beautiful the glow of a light can be.
