Hollywood Hills Drive
Tuesday, July 19, 2011
First off--I'm up for vote at For The Love of Blogs today! I'm #4, for "best in photography," please click here and vote for me by clicking "like" under my blog's name! Thanks!
Now for some pictures...
I decided to go for a drive through the Hollywood Hills this weekend. I had always heard there was a large reservoir up Lake Hollywood Drive and I thought I'd go check it out. I have to admit my jaw dropped a bit when I saw it, I had no idea such a large body of water was hiding up in these hills and I love seeing the view of Hollywood behind it.

I so wish the sun was setting off in the distance in this picture instead of behind me (though that did cast a nice warm light on everything.) I may have to drive up here for sunrise one morning just to get the sun peaking over the horizon in this shot!
While I was up there I happened upon a little dog park, just under the Hollywood sign!
And around the corner from there was an awesome view of the Hollywood sign. For some reason, I always like Hollywood sign pictures in black and white!

After my little tour, I drove up through Mulholland Drive to watch the sunset. I love seeing the rolling hills of the valley in this shot, and of course all the colors in the sky.

Don't forget to click here and vote for me, #4, Live, Love, Travel, best in photography! Thanks!!! :)
