Good Morning Los Angeles / The Academy Awards

Im a few days behind, but on Saturday i decided to wake up at 6:30 am (not by choice....mental Alarm clock) and go on an adventure once again shooting around LA. At that time there is minimal traffic and the air is fresh. I decided what i was going to do was drive and stop then travel on foot. That i did, i got off on Alameda, parked, and decided to get my camera out and catch some flicks. Lucky me i stumbled upon a few JR pieces (JR is a French street artist and you can find a lil bit of info on his WIKIPEDIA page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JR_(artist) .







(Please DO NOT STEAL MY PHOTOS)

I also came across a Mr. Cartoon Mural i have seen awhile back but never seen in person. This this if FIRE such a talented Artist. If you don't know who Mr Cartoon is then your def lagging on all levels. The downside of discovering the wall was there was a pickup truck parked right in front of it so i only was able to photograph sections of it.









Dope artwork

I also found a lot with some pretty good damage on the walls.



The "Cool" Bus
(i believe someone was living in there)

After that i drove down to the Kodak to hopefully catch some good Oscar preparation photos but because of the previous and possible rain the access and view was limited.












Nothing special i did run into Michelle Tuzee (ABC 7 News) and i did see Snooki (Jersey Shore) from the balcony... umm yeah...




Til next time ...
