Ah the museum of ice cream where you can eat ice cream samples, see non edible ice cream, play in a pool of sprinkles and take as many selfies and instagram photos as you want to your little hearts desire. Lol it should be called Museum of Selfies plus Sweet Colorful Stuff. Yep I totally partook in it too. I think i spent more time taking photos then actually enjoying the art. Or was the art not compelling enough so I kept taking photos? Or it was so compelling that I had to take photos? Whatever. Just enjoy yourself!!! And have fun!! It was fun!!!! #amitung #museumoficecream (at MUSEUM OF ICE CREAM)

I found this in the parking lot today and I just had to snap a photo of it. It's a puddle of water that looks like a monster, how funny is that? I swear I didn't photoshop it. And the arrows from the parking lot. Totally love this random find that probably won't be there tomorrow! Enjoy! #amitung #photography #random #puddle #dinasour #picoftheday #losangeles #arrow #parkinglot #asphalt #monster

A lunch at a gluten free vegetarian organic Cafe that sells books and has a piano for live musical artists, filled with found objects run by Dot tie, who runs a home to help people with drug rehabilitation and they can work at the Cafe and reclaim their lives, eating in outside back among plants and found objects, randomly a musician sparks a conversation and a new friend is made and a few people are inspired and we chat with a few workers and find out their stories of boxing, acting, and life. Spontaneous unplanned wondrous, Peppermint smoothies and this photo of their spa water made with beautifully carved strawberry flowers. Community life love and gratitude . #amitung #photography #spawater #glutenfree #vegetarian (at Elderberries)

#poppy desert bloom so pretty!!! Thanks for taking me @karenelano ! Although saw a bunch of people messing up the protected flowers by taking photos in the flowers! Stay on the trail so that we can experience these Flowers for years to come people! #speakup. Probably a lot of people think, oh it's just me and it's real quick, imagine 100,00 people thinking that out of a million that my visit. That restoration area isn't going to grow anymore flowers! Each person can make a tidal wave of difference and just the same each person can contribute to a tidal wave of detriment. #protectourwildlife #amitung #photography (at Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve)

Enjoying the beautiful animals up close and personal here at #gentlebarn vegan animal rescue farm. This turkey loves to show off his feathers and get attention and have his photos taken. Beautiful stories of abused and left for dead animals rescued and now have a forever home to heal and show love to children to help them heal through the power of shared energy. Children are paired with animals who have had similar traumatic experiences and together they heal each other. Beautiful non-profit. Photography #amitung #turkey (at The Gentle Barn)

In the darkness we feel alone, in the light we see a complex myriad of choices, jumbled, indecipherable, a path perhaps leading to somewhere uncertain and still feel alone weighted by choice the weight that our life is how we have created it and yet in darkness, alone in the uncertainty of what's before us and the lack of control for we can not see that we have choice...we continue to walk for there is only two choices, walk or don't walk. Move or don't move. Your choice. #nightphotography by #amitung #losangeles #choice #graffiti #graffitiart #art #mural #alley #wanderlust #photography #art @bestoflosangeles #dtla (at Downtown Los Angeles)

Had an amazing time as always on the #nightonbroadway the yearly tradition of a massive street #festival in #losangeles to help revive the #historical theatre district. Many of the beautiful theaters from back in the glory days are open to the public, a rare occurrence. Love if! #phitography #nightphotography #neonsign #neon #broadway @nightonbroadway (at Broadway Theater District)

Capturing the gathering of women children and men alike to march for human rights and anti discrimination policies in sunny California in downtown Los Angeles. To speak up and start the conversation toward understanding is to start the road to change, to stay silent is to give in to bigotry and be part of what we let happen to use instead of remembering that even if oppressed we must find the strength because we have a choice. Let's make it. #wehaveachoice #womensmarch #dtla #humanrights #march #protest #womenempowerment #womensrights #photography #socialmovement #speakup #human #empowerment @bestoflosangeles @womensmarch @amrentulano #amrentulano @karenelano @latca #karenelano #amitung #elanophoto #crowds (at Downtown Los Angeles)

What an amazing sky phenomenon today. The sun on the left, and another shining light on the right as if there were two suns! And all the clouds and rays coming out of that second light. Just beautiful. There's even a slight rainbow in it. #amitung #photography #joshuatree #sky #sun #phenomenon #roadtrip #clouds #cloudformation #wanderlust #travel #california #nationalpark #nature #landscape #travelphotography #epic (at Joshua Tree National Park)
