Getty Center is a large museum complex in West Los Angeles. Perhaps more famous for it's mountain top views of LA and it's architecture than it's art, it's a great place for photography. I go here often to practice and have fun.

The winter sun was relatively low and so very warm, I took a lot of shots of super saturated and warm colors. Here are the shots from yesterday.
1. Sun starting to set over the Pacific Ocean.

2. Trying some layered stuff with branches in the foreground.

3. Even tighter now with the Canon 135mm f2L. Man, that 135mm f2L is sharp. Hardly needs sharpening.

4. After the sunset, playing with some leading lines.

5. But still taking the time to see in b/w.

6. I wasn't the only one enjoying the light.

    Hey thanks.
    The colors are super saturated, but that's kinda what I was going for that day.
