Retired military man Rich Bojorquez-Davila has been traveling to South California for the past two years. Based in Arizona, this amateur photographer says he is drawn to the vivid colors in the South Californian vista. While he humbly states he is no pro, would you believe us if we told you some of these photos were shot on his phone?

How many stickers can you count?

Here's another shot Bojorquez-Davila saw in a movie. This time it's an old memory. He couldn't really tell which movie it was, but the visual impact stuck with him.

In this photo, he wanted to portray the constant movement of the trees on the coast

Bojorquez-Davila doesn't go easy on the camera button when it comes to cars, and we couldn't be more thankful for that. Seems like both the pristine and the worn-down vehicles are an integral part of the coastal scenery, adding color to the palette.
