The fires in LA are seriously out of control. If you have any doubt, here is a very impressive time-lapse video that Brandon Riza shot, with his Canon 5D Mark II I might add.

First of all, the fires are very scary, and I feel bad for the folks in California right now. I hope none of you guys are being affected, but I’m sure a few of you are, so my heart goes out to you. Secondly, it goes to prove how little control we have over our environment. After thousands of years, and with all the technology we possess, mankind still lacks the ability to put out a forest fire.

Sad.

The most famous section of the Walk of Fame is right outside an old movie theatre called Mann’s. This is literally the most famous movie theatre in the world, built in 1927, and it’s where all of the top movie premiers happen in Hollywood, and you see the interviews on the red carpet there all the time.
