Description Shot with medium format camera at the Orange Empire Rail Museum in Perris, CA. Love the colors and texture I find here. Riverside county had a very large fire in 1987 that came close to the museum. It filtered the sky with an eerie orange color. This was taken as the sky was clearing. I had my two boys with me as we ran to capture this special light effect. The Orange Empire Rail Museum also has a large collection of old buses
Larry Costales, Lake Elsinore Member Since July 2007 Artist Statement A self taught photographer, I do actor head shots and portraits for money and fine art images for myself and love of the art. Due to my military duty that took me away from home on five year long tours, after 20 years I am still an undiscovered actor. No regrets, I even served one year in Kuwait as a contractor because I still felt a need to support our troops. I specialize in color and texture and while I was in Kuwait I expanded my art to include some people. I always try to capture some sort of mood or emotion in my images that I hope you notice and are effected by. A few of my images are first place award winners, others have yet to be submitted for competition. Please leave a comment and let me know what images you liked. If your a LA Dodger fan I can be seen on You Tube- 2007 commercials. Look for "Miracle Toast".
