The moon sets over Malibu and the South Bay

This was one of the first aerial images I captured that day. The moon was still in the sky, and there was a beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean, Malibu, El Segundo and Manhattan Beach, California.

Aerial Image of the Hollywood Hills

The world-famous Hollywood sign captured from a Cessna. There is something about aerial photography that changes your perspective. Living in Los Angeles, I've seen this sign and the Hollywood hills thousands of times, but this time the perspective was so different, it was like I had not seen it before.

This was an amazing capture! The air was so clear that you can see Century City and even Downtown Los Angeles in this aerial image of the Santa Monica Pier.
