Los Angeles | Hollywood Hills Sunset 🌄

You can always trust LA’s sunsets—they’re pure magic. Here’s your golden-hour guide to capturing the iconic "Angel’s Gate" glow: 📍 Best Viewpoints 1️⃣ Ascot Hills Park *4371 Multnomah St, LA 90032* Pros: Ample parking + long-lens friendly (70-300mm ideal). Shot: Frame the cityscape through the hills’ natural "gate." 2️⃣ 6010 Deronda Drive Challenge: Zero parking—arrive by 4:00 PM to scout spots. Reward: Unobstructed Hollywood Sign + downtown skyline combo. 📸 Gear & Timing Camera: Fujifilm X-T5 + XF16-55mm & XF70-300mm (versatile for wide/tele). Golden Window: 4:30-5:30 PM—watch the light shift from gold to pink. 🌅 Pro Tips Hike Smart: Ascot’s trails are easy; Deronda’s are steep (wear grip shoes). Cloud Check: High fog? Pivot to Griffith Observatory for Plan B. Stay Late: Twilight’s blue hour (30 mins post-sunset) = moody city lights. #Hollywood #LosAngeles #SunsetChaser #LAPhotography #FujifilmXT5
