Last year I began a series of images to explore the juxtaposition between the idyllic, touristy impression of SoCal beach life and the reality the majority of us residents experience in our daily grind.

I started with the above photo of a stark, overcast beach in Santa Monica, CA. This became the backdrop and foundation of all the other images. I then superimposed it with candid shots taken on beach walks and added glitch effects to each piece.

Today I'm sharing half a dozen images from this award winning series.

Thanks, upvoted and resteemed by the Minnows Accelerator Project.

Many thanks!

Upvoted. Great stuff! And being from the area, I can relate to the touristy v everyday resident experience.

Somehow missed your comment until now. Yes, the difference can be staggering and disorienting.

A side of life many don't normally see or hear. Thanks for sharing

My pleasure 😊
