OK so i was kind of pressed for time yesterday and did take about a half hour or so to take some photographs down in Hermosa Beach , CA, great community .. instead of driving to Santa Monica beach go a little south next time and check out one of my favorite communities .. if you like to have LIBATION 'S than Hermosa is the town, they have some great restaurants and bars and you can find a bar setting for whatever you mood is , meaning a surfer bar, a Irish bar, a American bar (American Junkie) bars with a Latino flavor.. you get the hint .. trust me i lived here for seven years.. now i live close by , just kind of got priced out.. but that's OK those landlords can keep raising the rent and we can take our business to other communities isn't that the bottom line..:(
Anyway my hobbie runs into danger sometimes not danger i mean i can carry myself , it's just that when i am in urban areas i am a photographer (OK Amateur) but one of these days i may turn pro.. have more than enough experience . So i was taking a few pictures and believe or not their are angry men (usually men ) however girls can give you some mean looks but they are usually docile and don't get too too aggressive , this is where my blog is leading me,, so i non-Chantilly took a pic unaware there was a angry young man in the shot . after i took the pic, i walked away going towards the Hermosa pier , then i heard him " Are you going to delete that pic"? you have to ask permission to take my photograph! .. something to that effect .. i was in a confrontational position .. i explained i had no problem deleting the photograph so i walked up to him and showed him the LCD screen and did just that. he is in the right, but it is a free society and i can take pictures of whoever i want .. but if you don't like your picture taken like this gentleman you should oblige it is a professional way to act as a photographer ...so i did , delete one pic , when i got home i noticed he was in another pic, but that 's not the one he asked me to delete hope obscene gesture;s don't offend y'all... he was a piece of work , it's all good got some great pics .. and that's all that matter .. no i said i wouldn't post his pic well tell me too take it down now punk"---------" (can be a little vindictive) i have gotten yelled at a few times for taking pics.. sometimes i can be sneaky and i don't ask , but i get great shots that way and that's fun for me.. so hope you like my pics i have a Flickr account.. and just opened a Instagram account (which is a awesome application) ... anyway have a nice day everyone, and i hope this angry one chills out maybe he needs a drink or something at one of the many drinking establishments in this small south bay beach community....one more thing wouldn't consider Hermosa a urban beach area, Venice ya, not Hermosa , guess i have to venture to more affluent
areas but Hermosa is such a cool town.. never really had a problem there .. anyway have a good day all.oh angry man just leave a comment and i will take pic off my blog "--" Kevin S. Brown
