Whether it&#8217;s your favorite restaurant, park or street, we all notice and experience the world around us based on where we live. I live in L.A. and can&#8217;t stop noticing sharp contradictions of this huge metropolitan area, with its glitz and glamour and almost forgotten, but yet vibrant amazing neighborhoods. 
This is L.A. through my eyes.
