Gorgeous color! Here are just a few favs from the final installment of my photography series of downtown Los Angeles… It was hard not to turn them all into black and white… as one of the Workshop attendees this past weekend noted, “Christa, you see things mostly in black and white” – she’s right! I usually go for the moment, the relationship, light/shadow, lines, etc… color is secondary for me. But in these pics, color is the star for sure!
God and palm trees are everywhere… even in Downtown LA :)

And to follow-up on the beautiful black & white’s of the Walt Disney Concert Hall from my Symphony in B&W No. 1, here are some of my favorites that showcase the beautiful blue notes of the sky reflected in the steel…



Ahhhhhh, just let this one wash over you :) Bliss….

Hope you guys enjoyed my series of Downtown Los Angeles as much as I loved shooting it!
Lots of fun coming up on the blog – gorgeous boudoir pictures, workshop attendees’ pics from this past weekend’s Portrait Workshop, and some Polaroid lovin’ :)

BEAUTIFUL!!!! STUNNING!!!!
Very nice indeed…. personally I do prefer b&w, but that’s just my preference and it does not take away anything from these spectacular shots. I think my fav, is the Happy sign close to bras, panties, etc. One can construe a few meaning from that shot alone…. or none at all. I really like it. The concert hall in blue looks awesome. Really awesome. Again great set Christa.
wow – love them!
it did worth to carry your heavy stuff around all day when you were shooting – ha ha
L.A. as pretty as never seen before….
You are an amazing artist!
I love these pictures! What amazing works of art. I live in L.A. but never see these things how you see them… Thank you!
Really love the 5th one. The blue curves contrasting to that sharp point on the left.
This pictures just confirm that DTLA is beautiful….you just need to see it through the lens of Christa Meola!!!
Love the colors the lines and the atmosphere! Kudos!
