THE SHOTS
LANDMARKS AND
HISTORICAL SITES
When you’re shooting landmarks and historical sites, you’re creating your rendition of a subject that many have
photographed or even painted countless times. I always try to include the complete story of the location, so some-
one who has never been there can easily get a feel for the entire place by merely looking at my photograph. at
principle applies here to the picture of the famous Grith Observatory, which is on a hilltop west of Hollywood
and east of downtown Los Angeles.
