Another manequin shot that I liked. I am almost running out of L.A. images which means I have to get out and start capturing new images to show you.

I don't remember mannequins being this pretty since the 1987 movie Mannequin, where Kim Cattrall protraits a living mannequin.

So many interesting people to photograph, so many opportunities. This young girl decided to take her new born puppy shopping with her. I couldn't pass up the opportunity of capturing the image.

We went to "the alleys" on Saturday while in L.A. and I found this doll vendor. The dolls were pretty cute and so I decided to take a few images. I like this particular one because even though the rack was full of dolls my eyes gravitated towards this pair of dolls and decided to take the picture as a couple. I like the way the doll at the bottom came out just picking through in a sort of mischievous way.

On May 15, 1946, a young Tommy Koulax introduced Los Angeles to a hamburger with gusto. Fifty-four years later, L.A.'s love affair with his chili-topped creation is still going strong. Beginning with a ramshackle little stand on the corner of Beverly and Rampart Boulevards in Los Angeles, Tommy has fed an estimated fifty million Southern Californians
Back in the 80's during our disco days we used to go to the original Tommy's on Beverly and Rampart late at night, park our cars in a semi-circle, tune to the same radio station, open our trunks and jam to the music while eating the delicious chili burgers that Tommy's is famous for.
The second picture shows just how popular Tommy's was back then. A multitude of customers waiting in line to order. Last week after the "Quinceañera" driving back to my brother in laws house we saw a newer Tommy's in the city of Pico Rivera (see first picture) and we just had to stop and get some chili burgers. Not as good as the ones I remembered but very tasty never the less.
