Mulholland Drive winds along the spine of the Santa Monica Mountains. The drive is named after William Mulholland, who began life as a ditch tender and became L.A.'s ultimate water visionary and pirate. I walked the edge of the road, looking over high fences onto private streets and swimming pools of unearthly blue. As the convertibles passed, I held the camera over my head and spun in an arc, shooting blindly. The drivers stared into their rearview mirrors as if I were an apparition.
