Los Angeles streetscape of Mexican fan palms of Sunset Boulevard. by Tim Kiser

"Oh sure the arrangement of trees is cute and charming for a minute but the novelty wears off fast. Overall the city looks ridiculous, grotesque," I groused agitatedly on the sidewalk as I took pictures.

A golden trumpet tree is a municipal impartation of arboreality to famous Traction Avenue in Los Angeles. by Tim Kiser

A merger of double yellow lines at an industrial streetscape of Los Angeles. by Tim Kiser

Do you see those cars parked perpendicularly to the "Times Consolidation" building over there? If people are gonna park their cars that way, it looks to me like the double yellow line ought to be lifted up and shifted to the right a bit, in the interests of order and good sense.

In the Los Angeles Toy District, a view past Pipe King, up Boyd Street, toward 3 skyscrapers. by Tim Kiser

I have always liked the smoothness of the blacktop in this part of town.

Let's tell the names and dates of the 3 skyscrapers:
• Blue: Two California Plaza, built 1992
• Beige: Ronald Reagan State Building, built 1990
• Dark pink: Wells Fargo Tower, built 1983

I have never looked at these three skyscrapers from anyplace other than this spot.

Aggressive whimsicality of a ball of topiary, low in the sky, a leafy testicularity-on-a-stick. by Tim Kiser

This being a public sidewalk, I assume that it is a government tree? And that the enforcement of its crown's fanciful sphericity is a government act?
