Videos I shot from the same location as above:

On Paseo Del Mar road (which has a dedicated, road-side bike path) in San Pedro. This photo faces South. During this bike expedition, a bike-mounted monopod/camera configuration was tested. The intent was to capture both the rider and the dynamic background scenery while the bike was in motion. Although the mini-DV cam was small and light, the monopod swayed too much during motion to justify further usage in this configuration.

Another view (facing South) from White Point Bluff Park in San Pedro. Lovely flowers, vines and other flora surround and decorate the building on the left -- which, believe it or not, is the restroom.
