LAX Photos

I really can't wait to get down to L.A., mainly because there's SO many different things to photograph. I love urban art and architecture, so when my family went to pick up some family from their trip to China, I went around LAX and snapped some photos. Here's two of them that I really liked. I'm still trying to work on long exposures with so much light around me. I'm used to standing out in the middle of a field in Bakersfield shooting stuff and making the dark sky light up, so this is a fun new challenge to me. But, I think these turned out well, and would love your opinion.

Big Plane for a Big Sky

Thanks to a friend at the airport, Hailey and I were able to go out onto the tarmac after hours and check out the massive AH-124 that landed in Bakersfield. It was really cool getting to walk all around it and see just how big this plane really is!

Wingspan from tip to tip is 80 yards wide!

68 feet high from ground to tip. 

Huge. Just...huge. 

It takes 300,000 pounds of thrust to get it off the ground. 

And, because the clouds were gorgeous too, I had to get a shot of Hangar Six.
