Place in the Sun

Photography of Los Angeles

This is a superb photographic celebration of the unique places and people of Los Angeles. Photographer John Humble has lived and worked in Los Angeles for over thirty years – in that time he has created a stunning body of work that uniquely captures the distinctive architecture and natural environment of Southern California. "A Place in the Sun" is a magnificent celebration of Humble's distinctive view of Los Angeles – from the concrete channels of the Los Angeles River and the monumental freeways in the sky to the people and the cityscape through which they run.
