Los Angeles

After four years (!) of commenting on her photos and emailing and chatting (and playing online Scrabble) with her for hours and hours,
I finally got to spend quite a lot of time at fellow pbaser Christina Conroy's place with her and her loving family in Irvine, USA.
We had a blast and laughed and shot our way through two weeks and realized we're the best friends ever even in real life.

Here we are shooting in downtown Los Angeles, where security guards came running after us twice because we were taking photos of skyscrapers.
We had gotten the shots that we wanted, so we left the scene and laughed about it afterwards.
I'm back in Sweden now, but a big portion of my heart remains in Irvine with Christina.
Check out her gallery, she's ALMOST as good as me at taking cool photos :D

What a wonderful time we had!!! This is a great picture, and yes, I think mine is merely ALMOST as good as this one! In any case, I learned a lot from you and can't wait to share time shooting with you again! http://www.pbase.com/image/123436761
