Artist's Description
It was a cold December day in the City of Angels. I came in on the 12:15 from the sleepy town of San Luis Obispo. I had time to kill - time enough to hop the Red Line towards Tinseltown. At a stop along the way I saw her. She wore a coat and hat - the kind of hat that could cast a shadow big enough to cover the town like a solar eclipse. Her handbag - it was big enough to hold three watermelons. I watched her ascend from the depths and disappear onto the streets of Los Angeles. My work was done - the pigeons could follow from here.
This photograph was made in a subway station on the LA Metro with a fisheye lens. I lay my upper body down on the divider between the up and down escalators, composed the shot, and waited. Soon I was rewarded with not only the perfect passenger, but a very cooperative flock of birds overhead. The result was this moody and mysterious photo.
This photo is also available in color.
About Darin Volpe

I have been photographing the things I see for over thirty years. A resident of San Luis Obispo County, I'm lucky to have many excellent photo destinations within a few minutes' or hours' drive. Beyond the local area, I have traveled throughout California and the western United States, visited far away American destinations such as Chicago, New York, Florida, and Alaska, and international destinations in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. My photography varies from Architecture to Industrial Art to Nature to Wildlife and I'm sure you'll find something suitable for your home or office. Visit my blog
