Well, haven’t been here for a minute? Is this place still a party?

Question: is there still a photography community on Tumblr?

“You’ll remember me, when the west wind moves, upon the fields of barley...”

A hidden stretch of California poppies. Not a single one trampled on nor picked by me. A true Californian knows to leave them alone.

Nearly glass water at dawn here at the River. You almost never see me up and out of my room this early (and without coffee!) but the peace and golden light were worth it. #mattlarashoots (at Marina Village, Parker, Az)

Stopping on the way home today. Feeling very much a part of the LA storyline today having just wrapped work on a film with good friends of mine. Then stopping randomly at the outlook on Mulholland when there wasn’t a bus load of tourists being dropped off, oddly enough. I drove home thinking “I needed that shot.” #bornandraisedincali #mattlarastreet #losangeles #dtla #cityscape #views #urbanexploration (at Mulholland Drive)
