THE BEAUTY IN EXPIRED LA BY VICKY MOON
CA, Los Angeles-based photographer Vicky Moon - “Expired L.A. is an on going series of my exploration of Los Angeles at night. Every building is unique and captivating, as well as the individual color shifts each building creates with every exposure. I am fascinated by the drama that is created by the night sky and seek the beautiful in the over looked; I find the mundane to be extravagant and I find the beauty in the expired; This is my Los Angeles.”
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees. Delicious cold neon in a cracked city. Beautiful.
