Interior, Redondo Steam Plant

This year I joined the Redondo Beach Art Group. The venue for their main art show this year was inside a decommissioned part of the Redondo Beach power plant. The plant opened just after WWII (I think) and closed about 1985. I took this image with the iPhone on a Saturday afternoon one week before the show opened - I had volunteered to do some painting of the art display walls that day.

Bubbles

Taken for the advanced photography class for October 2011. This was taken on a Sunday afternoon at the Redondo Beach pier. The assignment was to take photographs that show the lighter side of photography at the Redondo Beach pier. The proprietor of a kite / wind toy / kids toy kiosk was blowing bubbles out of a bubble making machine into the wind stream flowing around the kiosk. It did a great job in attracting kids and their parents.

Counting change

Putting away the dory


Taken on the last day of July 2011 at the Hermosa Beach pier. These two lifeguards had participated in dory races earlier in the morning, and were pushing their dory across the sand to the trailer in the lifeguard tower parking lot. Love that sky.
