LAX - NIGHT & DAY - viDEO ARt

Very hi-def time-lapse photography of LAX by night ...

I liked it a lot.

At Father's Office - Culver City, CA

Outside seating at Father's Office bar in Culver City (at the old Helms Bakery).

At the Museum - MOLAA, Long Beach, CA

Studying art at the Museum of Latin American Art. (molaa.org).

An exhibit I found fascinating in the permanent collection was a set of movie clips from '30s, '40s, and '50s that used the same painting by Diego Rivera, Flower Carrier, 1935, as part of the set. Rivera is most known for his later works as a famous Mexican muralist, and more recently as the (two-time) husband of Freda Kahlo.

See the painting photo at http://gardenofpraise.com/art24.htm.

Of course, the movies were in black and white.

LONDON calling ... near Heathrow Airport, UK

A boy with his dad, on the crowded Tube from Heathrow heading toward Central London. I think they are Swiss, since the boy said: "Nei, nei." to the offer of a seat and left it open for adults to use.
