Here’s more from the old rollfilm that I had set aside unporcessed for over 15 years. I do remember working along normally busy Ventura Boulevard early on weekend mornings, using my view camera with a borrowed 6x12cm rollfilm back. The two-squares aspect ratio seemed ideal for views of commercial buildings lined up east-and-west for dozens of miles.

As I review these now, I’m struck by the inactive look, the unused signage. Someone might be able to come along later and photograph a grand-scale ghost town.
