Recently we had some rain in LA and I headed straight to the Baldwin Hills scenic outlook hoping for a nice smog free photo of the LA skyline and the San Bernardino mountains. But I massively underestimated the tenacity of LA's smog and found the mountains to be completely covered in smog. But the same smog that was covering the eastern mountains looked much better towards the Culver City area when the setting sun was providing a nice effect.
I had to wait for about an hour in the cold wind for the sun to finally set. And I liked the road to the parking lot and its curve and wanted to include it in the photo too. Thanks for visiting, hope you all like the image.
