Santa Monica
At the intersection of Wilshire and Ocean boulevards in Palisades park, a statue of Santa Monica stands on a heart-shaped patch of grass. The 18-ft. high Art Deco Sculpture was sculpted in 1934 by Eugene Morahan as a Public Works of Art project and presented to the citizens of Santa Monica by the Federal Government. The statue faces Wilshire Blvd. as if welcoming visitors to the park.

Honoring Those Who Served~~
Today was Veterans Day in the United States, when Americans honor military members for their services. This monument is dedicated by the City of Santa Monica to the members of the Armed Services who have given their all in defense of the country.

Before, During, and After Sunset ~~
Santa Monica sunsets are beautiful and attract both locals and visitors daily. Just about ten minutes before sunset people start taking their spots along Palisades Park to get the best view and snap memorable photos. And the show is never disappointing. It starts with that beautiful golden light hitting the water and the sky turning all shades of pink, orange, and red, and continues way after the sun disappears into the water of behind he mountains, depending on the time of the year. It’s a spectacle that never gets old.
This week’s Photo Challenge is Careful, which is exactly what this chap had to be as he ran back and forth on a narrow surface on top of the Santa Monica buffs. Any misstep and he could fall onto the Pacific Coast Highway fast traffic below.
