NANCY BARON's series Talking in L.A. is a group of images captured in Bronson Canyon in Los Angeles that's meaning is manipulated by simple  conversation blurbs, that she happened to hear in the process of photographing the canyon. They are known as one of the rare destinations in L.A. where people tend to take this opportunity to chat with friends or fellow residents of Los Angeles. 

"As I am photographing the gold and green natural beauty that lies only minutes from urban streets, hikers pass behind me, asking about my camera or my lens, what I’m seeing, but, more often, engrossed in their own conversations; taking advantage of the opportunity for intimate face to face conversation with friends. The images are subtitled with phrases that I overhear while shooting."
