Photographer Serge Ramelli turns his lens on the vast and complex coastal metropolis of Los Angeles, whose name "City of Angels" reflects its Spanish-Mexican influence, although it is most familiarly and affectionately known by its acronym: "LA." Despite the city's relatively short history, this Californian hub has been the global centre of the film industry for over a century. Stars and starlets have always felt at home beneath their celestial counterparts as seen in a twinkling LA sky captured in Ramelli's celebrated night photography. A place of contrasts and stark topography, Los Angeles is well situated for drama and spectacle - flanked by mountains to the north and east, demarcating the San Fernando Valley, opening to the south and west onto Santa Monica Bay, and the coastline of the Pacific Ocean. Featuring a stunning selection of vibrant and varied photographs, this Los Angeles photo book from YellowKorner star Serge Ramelli captures all the dichotomies and allure of this storied Californian metropolis. Candid and posed, colour and black and white, romantic and documentary, Ramelli's images is a dynamic visual journey through a fascinating and seductive city.
