Wow, this is very beautiful. I lived in LA when I was in college. These were the best student years. We even found a way to get rid of paperwork thanks to Paperial.com where a professional writer can write my research papers. This saved a huge amount of time spent on vacation and travel.

Yes. Urban Light is the name of the display of 1920-1930 LA streetlamps by artist Chris Burden. It's located at LACMA, Los Angeles County Museum Of Art in Los Angeles.

Nice, but to be honest I was just saying that if you have enough money you can have decent life in LA or in NYC; if you don't, well, let's say you mentally hardly survive in there, just a walking d

It’s great just seeing the diversity of LA, not only are there Latin people, you get to see all the different races and ethnicities at this event. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting LA during the summer months. The museum is also open to enjoy as well, it’s such a beautiful public place to hang out.

something about the photos you've posted in the past & these ones from pwright always manage to give a good sense of this place....LA & environs....better than other snapshots....or what's commonly seen in coffee table picture books. That's where photos are of so many close ups of ppl, or food, & limited shots of a city, they could just as well be anycity USA. some may prefer that type of photo, however. But I favor pics that can be immediately identified as city a, city b or city c.

I always appreciate pwright's photo posts..
