Occupy Wall Street Demonstration In Los Angeles

I ventured downtown to do some street shooting and capture the people involved in Occupy Los Angeles. The energy was high and everyone I saw was peaceful and friendly to each other. There were some debates among people with different opinions but that is what I love about this country. We can have a difference of opinion and share it peacefully. I wanted to show some photographs of what I observed on Saturday for the people who aren't in the area and want to know what is going on. You can draw your own conclusions and opinions. I have more photographs on my facebook fan page. You can be a fan and see more photographs HERE.

4 tell me something:

US Traveler said...: These pictures are so touching, especially the one with the 90 year old woman holding up the sign. Your photos actually capture a story, unlike ridiculous photographic attempts to depict the protest as meaningless and superficial (I've seen plenty of those floating around on the internet).; October 19, 2011 5:28 AM
Alison said...: Thank you so much Carolyn and US Traveler!
