They say to not take photos into the sun, do I listen, NO.
I decided to try and take a picture with my fisheye lens into the sun and after a bit of work in post, I think it turned out pretty well. At the bottom center, we see City Hall park and going clockwise: City Hall South, CalTrans Building, LAPD headquarters, The Times, and the new US District Courthouse(the mirrored cube). The vacant land at the bottom right is the site of the old state building that was heavily damaged in the 1971 San Fernando earthquake and was demolished soon afterwards. However, because the City/County/State could agree on what to do with the land, the foundations sat there for 45 years. It will soon be a park.
