RX10: Santa Catalina Island
This Island was a popular spot with the Hollywood elite during the 1930s, 40s and 50s. It was also a popular spot for Hollywood filming. Many silent films were filmed here. Hollywood filming continues today.
In 1975, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Wrigley and Philip’s sister, Dorothy Wrigley Offield, deeded 42,000 acres owned by the Santa Catalina Island Company to the Catalina Island Conservancy, giving the Conversancy control of 88% of the island. The conservancy is the oldest and largest private land trust in Southern California. Catalina Island is home to 60 plant, animal and insect species found nowhere else in the world. Today, the Santa Catalina Island Company is owned by descendants of William Wrigley Jr., who carry on his vision for building and maintaining a world class island resort. - See more at: visitcatalinaisland.com/island-info/history#sthash.3dlTKzn5.dpuf Sony DSC-RX10 Benro A38TB Monopod Benro S1 Fluid Head Marumi Polarizer 1080/60p, Vivid, +1 Sharpness, -0.3 Exposure
