Rancho Palos Verdes - Is this LA?

Some family had recently relocated to Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles. I had never been to this part of LA, and it is very different than any other part of LA. The first few shots below are of a fountain found in one of the shopping centers at the base of the hill.



The sunset that first night and the sunrise that next morning, were the most vivid of the trip. It is not often you have that deep of a red in the sky.



The Point Vicente Lighthouse, was just 10 minutes from the house, so this was a favorite subject to shoot. The first shot below, was taken on our first night. The sun made the cliff glow in this amazing golden light, as shown below.




Wayfarers Chapel is located on one of the hillsides in Rancho Palos Verdes. It is used often in movie shoots, and commercials. The church has massive glass windows, and a mostly glass roof. It is a very intimate setting, as the pews can really only accomodate 72 people, with some standing room available at the back.
