Description
A foggy December morning in Venice Beach. A homeless man sleeps on a cement bench to the left of the walkway, while another sleeps underneath a bench directly across him, in violation of a law prohibiting camping along the ocean. This particular walkway starts near the bike path and overlooks the beach and sand. It is located at the end of the Rose Avenue parking lot. Although the fog is visible, houses can still be seen peeking from behind a cluster of palm trees. Photograph dated December 2002.
