What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Santa Fe Springs
Oil built this town, and tract housing followed in the 1950s and 1960s. Steel reinforcement helps those single brick chimneys, but it does not stop the wear of decades, so the camera checks each flue from the inside rather than trusting the era. Weather here is moderate, between coast and inland valleys, with some marine air and occasional Santa Ana gusts. Beneath it all sits a blind thrust, the Puente Hills fault, so old cracks and shifted joints get careful photos.
