Anthony Hernandez : LA Street Photographer




Some people ask, "What's so important or compelling about taking pictures of such unpleasant subjects like city dwellers?" . . . My work may be beautiful or it might not be, that just isn't what I am concerned with. I try to be open and face the city. . . . To me it's not unpleasant or unbeautiful, it's just life--which has to be threatening sometimes if it is going to be interesting."
--Anthony Hernandez


Anthony Hernandez, an American photographer best known for his street photography of 1970s Los Angeles. Check out 5B4's review of Anthony Hernandez's "Los Angeles Photographs of: Waiting, Sitting, Fishing and Some Automobiles."

If that just isn't the best title to describe Los Angeles - Waiting, Sitting, Fishing (for work ?) and Automobiles.
