Los Angeles in Flames
***I want to light the world on fire and take a picture of it for my records.
I’m normally not into taking these shots, but tonight’s sunset was too wicked. Unfortunately, the version of ACR I have doesn’t support RAW files from the 5D2, so I had to process the JPEG. Also processed this on an uncalibrated monitor. In hindsight, it looks overprocessed. Oh well, I’ll redo it when I get back on my computer.

It literally looked like the city was on fire. It immediately reminded me of Paris in Flames, one of my favorite Thursday songs.
Not that it has anything to do with this picture, but my favorite verse from the song:
There is no sunlight
The sunlight is manufactured in a windowless room
Distant and incoherent
Businessmen hang themselves
It’s PERFECT!
