    Love it!!! Many, many years ago, I lived in Hermosa Beach and worked in Torrance…so I love seeing pictures from that area…Great memories. Love your post processing!

  • I’ve lived here all my life, and I love it when people recognize something in my work saying they used to live here. Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging comments!

    gorgeous … I like both … but you know … I actually think I prefer this one … the light is so much more “beachy” if you know what I mean??? It has that wonderful early morning feel to it that you see nowhere else!!!!

  • I’m liking this one more, too. Sure appreciate your thoughtful comment!

    … by the way … interesting that you did this repost … I’m on my tippy toes about to do the same with an old shot of mine. Haven’t yet … but your experiment has encouraged me.

  • Go for it, for sure! The artist changes, why can’t the art?? :)
