Every Storefront on the Venice Beach Boardwalk

Diana Chang wants to take you on a tour of the Venice Boardwalk. The blogger says that she "tried to capture the feeling of a stroll through the Venice Boardwalk by taking a pic of each and every storefront that faces the ocean, with a soundtrack, and I think I kind of pulled it off." Individually, the photographs are pedestrian, but when taken as a whole you can see that the project is worthwhile. These images will make some want to raze the boardwalk, while others will understand that this is one of the last bastions of non-corporate retail space in a high traffic area in Los Angeles.

You can view all the photos and listen to her soundtrack choices (Dr. Dre + RHCP) on her blog here.
