STORY BEHIND THE IMAGE
Malibu, CA

This was one of those lazy “Friday morning light” days.Friday’s were usually the slower news and traffic days of the week in L.A. (hence Friday light) - Quiet days like this would give us the opportunity to buzz around town and the coast to sight see and provide “beauty” shots for our morning newscast. A cold front had passed through our region the previous day and this morning was one of those classic clear, crisp post-storm SoCal days. South facing Malibu wasn’t seeing much swell - but it was a gorgeous start to the day.
ARTIST BIO
Rick spent over 3 decades at a local Los Angeles news station covering weather, traffic and breaking news. Many of those years he was an airborne reporter flying across Southern California. As a meteorologist, he used the visuals from the rotorcraft as a teaching tool whenever possible, showing and telling all about the air and sea and the science behind it.
