The Urban World Through My Right Eye

Welcome to San Pedro, California

Posted by Nick Carlson on 2/27/2006

San Pedro is an amazing city. I hope my images can back that up. As this gallery grows my goal is to convince some of you out there that San Pedro is truly a unique and beautiful place, with many different faces. The culture and history within this city make it like no other.

An Evening Walk Down the Pedro Waterfront

This is a new area of development in San Pedro. It allows you to get really close to the Vincent Thomas Bridge. During a short walk just to check it out, I snapped some shots of these palm tress and just had fun trying to play with the lights that were around. Next time I want to bring my tripod and get up close to the bridge.
