Description January 2013.

Last on our list of "places to go" on our trip was Los Angeles' Getty Center - an art museum on top of a hill in LA.  For my photographic enjoyment, this was a two-task trip for me - one to take pictures of art when possible, with my 100mm macro lens, so as to focus in on particular details in paintings I liked, and also to take pictures at the outdoor grounds of the Getty Center, where the view of LA is great, as well as being a great vantage point to get sunset lighting.

Later in the year, when Grand Theft Auto 5 came out, I would be amused at all the similarities between particular areas in "Los Santos" vs Los Angeles.  The Getty Center is basically faithfully recreated in GTAV, so it was interesting to engage in the typical GTA style rampage in a place I had been to and taken photos at before.

I don't have any particular information on the pictures of the books, other than that some of them contain old form sheet music (for hymns), and the books are from around the 1400s.
