Two people, Dave and Penelope, pose together on a sunlit hilltop in Los Angeles, both wearing sunglasses and smiling warmly at the camera. The woman in an orange t-shirt holds up a copy of 'Secret Stairs: A Walking Guide to the Historic Staircases of Los Angeles' by Charles Fleming. Behind them stretches a dramatic panoramic view of the LA basin with golden dry grass in the foreground typical of Southern California's summer landscape. The photograph was taken with a wide-angle lens (Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM) giving the scene a slightly distorted, expansive feel that emphasizes the vast landscape behind the subjects. The mood is relaxed and adventurous, capturing a casual outdoor outing on a warm, hazy day.
