But not far from there is the Mission St spot:

I've taken a few photos from there:

Another popular spot is on Lower Grand

And in and around the Arts District has some graffiti:

Then there's under the 6th St Bridge, but that will be going away soon, if not gone already:

On the other side of the bridge, there is an industrial area with lots of spots if you get creative.

If you are willing to take a drive, go up one of several canyon roads. Here's one from San Gabriel Canyon Road:

Note that most of the LA areas are not too safe to go alone. Bring a friend... or 2.


EDIT: Just followed u on IG. What gear r u using?

Thats what i usually do when i go to La. Most of the time I don't even drive because of the conditions of the road. Nikon d7200 18-140mm lens.
